English

If the provided profile set is not sufficient, the administrator may create a custom profile by putting it in a special profile directory ({AUTHSELECT_CUSTOM_DIR}). By doing so, the profile is immediately usable by *authselect*. See _authselect-profiles(5)_ for more information on extending existing profiles.

	NAME
	authselect - select system identity and authentication sources.
	SYNOPSIS
	authselect [--debug] [--trace] [--warn] command [command options]
	DESCRIPTION
	Authselect is a tool to configure system identity and authentication sources and providers by selecting a specific profile. Profile is a set of files that describes how the resulting system configuration will look like. When a profile is selected, authselect will create nsswitch.conf(5) and PAM(8) stack to use identity and authentication sources defined by the profile.
	If the provided profile set is not sufficient, the administrator may create a custom profile by putting it in a special profile directory ({AUTHSELECT_CUSTOM_DIR}). By doing so, the profile is immediately usable by authselect. See _authselect-profiles(5)_ for more information on extending existing profiles.
	OPT-IN TO AUTHSELECT
	Authselect will not touch your existing configuration unless it has already been created by it. If you want to start using authselect to configure your system authentication, please call authselect select with --force parameter first (e.g. authselect select sssd --force). The --force parameter tells authselect that it is all right to overwrite existing non-authselect configuration (see description below). Using the --force parameter will automatically generate a backup of your current configuration so if you wish to go back you can restore it with authselect backup-restore command (see description below).
	OPT-OUT FROM AUTHSELECT
	To stop authselect from managing your configuration, run authselect opt-out. This will remove all authselect configuration from your system and you can then modify your configuration manually.
	AVAILABLE COMMANDS
	To list all available commands run authselect without any parameters. To print help for the selected command run authselect COMMAND --help.
	select profile_id [features] [-f, --force] [-q, --quiet] [-b] [--backup=NAME]
	Activate desired profile. See profile description with show command, to list profile specific optional features.
	--force, -f
	Write changes even if the previous configuration was not created by authselect but by other tool or by manual changes. This option will automatically backup system files before writing any change unless --nobackup option is set.
	-b
	Backup system files before activating the selected profile. The backup will be stored at {AUTHSELECT_BACKUP_DIR}/NAME. Current time with unique string is used as a name of the backup. This is a shortcut for --backup=.
	--backup=NAME
	Backup system files before activating the selected profile. The backup will be stored at {AUTHSELECT_BACKUP_DIR}/NAME. Current time with unique string is used as a name if no value is provided.
	--nobackup
