Well, the thing is, I don't know, because there was a separate problem
which plagued SSSD versions lower than 1.4, to do with groups - so I
never tried logging in with gdm...
I have a separate LDAP server which I will try on Monday to see if it's
something with the LDAP server or just my configuration.
Thanks,
