Hello - I have made the changes to the nsswitch.conf file as suggested, and I have restarted idmapd service. I also ran the following command syntax as root to check the sssd configuration: sssd -c /etc/sssd/sssd.conf -d2 -i The output was as follows: sssd -c /etc/sssd/sssd.conf -d2 -i (Thu Jun 23 10:44:39:600097 2016) [sssd] [add_implicit_services] (0x0040): id_provider is not set for domain [<company>.org], trying next domain.
