To integrate PAM-IDCS, the following steps should be conducted:

    Configure (PAM) on Linux servers using SSSD service.
  • 3
    Configure group and users with POSIX attributes to allow end-users authenticate with Oracle Identity Cloud Service using PAM on Linux. This is a very essential step. Only users with Posix attributes can authenticate with PAM. And this is not possible via console. This can be done using the command line only.
