Nothing Usually, but in this instance, I think he is referring to 
winbind on a samba 4 AD server and as is well known, it does not pull 
all the rfc2307 attributes.
As for the sernet packages, it would seem that sssd will not install due 
to a packaging problem. For debian based distros, this will not be a 
problem in future, unstable now has samba 4.1.4 which will allow sssd to 
install.
