With sssd including a first class AD backend built around the samba4
libraries themselves, I too would would like to know why 'sssd in NOT
the right thing'. As a hands on user with very limited resources, who
has to maintain a domain with 600 adoslescents throwing everything they
can at it, I'd say it's the ONLY way to go;)
