had to power off the machine by pressing and holding the power button.
When I did get the machine to restart, all the domain users had
seemingly gone.

Does doing that several times count as rebooting?
I repeat, before the sssd updates my computer worked perfectly, after
the update it did not, only change was the update, or to put it another
way: 17:45 GMT working and update started, 17:55 GMT not working. Now it
could have been something else that went wrong, but the cure was
downloading and installing a later version.
