Sure. sssd is a good idea for a modern replacement for configuring LDAP users. But nss-pam-ldapd might be considered more desirable for previous users of pam_ldap who are looking for a replacement that is relatively equivalent, particularly in terms of being lightweight. My gut feeling is that anyone who wanted to use pam_ldap in the first place would rather avoid sssd if it's possible to use nss-pam-ldapd. Personally, I would just use sssd, but that is me personally... -- Eli Schwartz
