Thanks Bryan,

Yes, that's my point!  I still feel that the issue is with the NAS vendors.  
Adding the SSSD algorithm would be a small amount of effort and "just work" for 
most of us working with Linux systems.  As I mentioned before it seems that 
multiple people say they've asked their NAS vendor to do this, yet the vendors 
aren't interested.

Having to add and manage additional fields in AD just to cater for a NAS seems 
like a huge cost.  We don't need to do so for any other reason and yet have a 
fully interoperable environment today.

In general many NAS, SAN and even Network vendors have issues with LDAP trees 
and attributes any way. 

So UID, GID and UPN (user@domain) and NT/Dom SID enumeration and mapping is a 
secondary issue. 

I.e., I spend a lot more time dealing with maintaining a 'light' 389/RHDS or 
AD-LDS tree just for those Storage/Network devices than anything else. This is 
the biggest issue with AD and a lot of attributed and added schema. 

There shouldn't be any issue with SSSD scaling to tens of thousands of records, 
and it's more of an issue of how the Storage/Network devices use or even search 
the LDAP attributes across a lot of records.
