    No "local only" profiles for people that don't need sssd?

    What is the effect of this on configurations that haven't been using
    sssd at all? Is everything going to suddenly start blocking/timing out
    on being unable to talk to it?



Starting with F26, the default configuration is for all setups to be using SSSD. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/SSSDCacheForLocalUsers

Well none of my newly upgraded F26 machines appear to be running it ;-)

This is actually advantageous, since the previous behavior was that all access to local users previously had to hit the disk (unless nscd was manually configured). If SSSD isn't responding, nsswitch will fail back to the old behavior fairly quickly.

I normally disabled nscd as well because the caching was just way too annoying...
