Public bug reported: After upgrading sssd, sssd-* from 1.11.8-0ubuntu0.5 to 1.11.8-0ubuntu0.6, sssd service no longer starts on boot.
According to the diff, it seems that checking 'autofs' was added to /etc/init/sssd.conf. All our systems do not have autofs installed. This may explain why sssd service did not start up. However, sssd service can be manually started with 'service sssd start'. This issue may affect other Ubuntu 14.04 systems which don't have autofs installed.
