However, users of other domains in the forest can not be authenticated. This is
understandable as I have pointed all the config files at the child domains DC's, i.e.
dc1.b.domain.org rather than
dc1.domain.org. I have been searching for example
configurations which will authenticate any user in the forest even though the Linux
installation is joined to a different child domain but not found any.

b.domain.org can login to lin1.b.doamin.orgusers from all child domains of
domain.org can
log into
lin1.b.domain.org. for example
a.domain.org,
c.domain.org or
z.domain.org

whole forest.

Thank you very much for the speedy reply. I'll take another look at the AD provider
and keep an eye on future sssd versions.
