You have to join AD in order to perform authorization tasks, bcs otherwise sssd 
has no way how to communicate with AD.
If you only want to use AD to authenticate local users, then no join is indeed 
necessary, but then there is no need for sssd, just need to configure Kerberos.

Subject: [SSSD-users] ID provider AD vs LDAP

I'm attempting to setup SSSD using AD as the id provider.  All the 
documentation that I've found results in the linux system joining the AD domain 
when configuring sssd in this manner.  I would like to configure sssd running 
on RHEL to just do authorization (access_provider) against the AD domain and 
*not* actually join the AD domain.  I assume that this would mean I should not 
set "access_provider = ad".  Instead should this value be set to ldap?

If I configure sssd to use LDAP as the access provider, how would I address the 
Active Directory domain ad.example.com using the "ldap://"; notation?  Would 
there be any other changes that I would need to address in the sssd.conf 
examples that use ldap as the access provider?
