With the SSSD package provided in Ubuntu 14.04, when using ldap as an authentication provider but configuring the id provider to proxy, SSSD fails to connect via LDAP. This error was brought up on the following serverfault question by user jhrozek.

This bug has been found and patched so I feel I don't need to go into a lot of detail, but it's a simple enough fix that I would like to request the patch be pulled into the current release to work with Ubuntu 14.04 since 16.04 is not yet stable for production deployments.

More information on the patch: https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/2620

Release: 14.04.3
Package Version: 1.11.5-1ubuntu3

Expected Behavior: Query user in LDAP for attributes objectclass and uid, then successfully bind that user via LDAP to authenticate.

Actual Behavior: Upon calling ldap_search_ext, generates error message in logs that LDAP connection is not connected
