I think I misrepresented myself. I am just trying my steps this time 
very carefully. Things i have done are below.
*******At client*********
1.installed sssd latest
2.edited sssd.conf file (now edited with your file reference)
3.not added machine to domain

what I have to do now?
1 should i use net ads join method and then try sssd
2.what is uid number & gid number of use, okay i have seen (in server 
log) that, do i have to map uid&gid in server smb.conf file(correct me here)


*******At server*********
1.is there any thing to do related to uid n gid or any thing on server ? 
if yes what ?
2. do i have to generate krb,*.keytab,etc file ?

thanks
