What is the sssd equivalent for wbinfo

  • 772

In the past we used winbind to integrate our RedHat servers with the Active Directory, we switched to using realmd and sssd. winbind provides a tool wbinfo to query user/group properties.

e.g. wbinfo --uid-info id

Does sssd provide a similar tool ?

I installed sssd-tools but that seems to be a collection of tools to add/delete/modify users and groups.

I need to translate a uid provided by smbstatus into a username

redhat active-directory sssd

    probably getent for user information en good old id:

    $ getent passwd user2
user2:*:1076200005:1076200005:ipa user:/home/user2:/bin/sh
$ id user2
uid=1076200005(user2) gid=1076200005(user2) groups=1076200005(user2)

    Used against a ipa server, no kerberos trusts with AD, but should work the same.
