Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6): Bug 1066096

Description of problem:

While checking my AD-client environment I noticed that homedirs from AD
users having posix attributes were not retrieved while on previous
version of SSSD with the same configuration file they were retrieved.

This can be solved by setting 'ldap_id_mapping = false' in sssd.conf

I'm not implying this is a bug I'm just saying we may consider informing
users rather loudly.

The idmapping choice should net have any effect on other attributes. If the home directory is set in AD it should be read and respected by the SSSD AD provider.

This bug was requested by downstream. Moving the priority up.

priority: major => critical

I did a bit of investigation and the root cause is that the homedir is not replicated to GC.
