1) What platforms SSSD is supported on?
Added to the FAQ
2) Is there an API to configure it?
I think this is more suitable for a separate porting/packaging page,
which we should probably also start writing.
3) What are the valid combinations of
identity+password+authentication
+authorization data providers - should be pointer to a page that
contains a matrix
I agree we should describe this somehow, but I'm not sure what mechanism
to use. A matrix doesn't really work because we have four providers (ID,
AUTH, ACCESS and CHPASS) that need to interact. It's hard to create a
four-dimensional matrix on a two-dimensional surface.
4) When should I use enumeration=true ?
Added to the FAQ
