Samba/Windows shares with AD authentication
I'll give this a shot because it sounds like a similar problem I ran into a while back. I'm not sure I can give you a step by step, but might point you in the right direction. If I remember correctly, sssd is what you want if you want to use the Rocky machine to access content on an AD domain. However, it is not compatible with Samba, so you do not want to use it if you are trying to set Rocky up as an AD member server. I use realm to join the domain, but specify samba instead of letting it use sssd which it seems to try to default to: sudo realm join -v --membership-software=samba --client-software=winbind your.domain.here More on reddit.com

CentOS8 Stream - SSSD and Samba Conflict

It looks to me like libndr.so was bumped from libndr.so.2 to libndr.so.3 in Samba 4.17, and everything that required the old version needed to be rebuilt. The current version of sssd in the repo is 2.7.3-5.0.1.el8, so it seems like you're on an old mirror. Refresh your metadata, and you should be fine.
