<title>THE LOCAL DOMAIN</title>
<para>
In order to function correctly, a domain with
<quote>id_provider=local</quote> must be created and the SSSD must be
running.
</para>
<para>
The administrator might want to use the SSSD local users instead of
traditional UNIX users in cases where the group nesting (see <citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sss_groupadd</refentrytitle> <manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>) is needed. The local users are also useful for testing and
development of the SSSD without having to deploy a full remote server. The
<command>sss_user*</command> and <command>sss_group*</command> tools use a
local LDB storage to store users and groups.
