Hi, there is a bit of a debate going on over on the samba list,
about using sssd or winbind. It is now being said that sssd should
not be used on a file server because sssd cannot do what winbind can
do.
So here are the questions:
Just what are the differences between using sssd and winbind.
Can sssd be used on a fileserver and if not, why not.
We plan to support this setup in the next SSSD release, see e.g.
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/1588 . The reason is that samba
itself does not only use the PAM and NSS interfaces but call winbindd
directly to get additional information which is not available in the
other interfaces.

Oh, and we are talking about an AD domain here.
Thanks
