Sahil KHan posted a new comment:
It sounds like you're dealing with an issue where sudo-ldap modifies
/etc/nsswitch.conf, changing the Name Service Switch (NSS) configuration
from sss (used for SSSD) to ldap (direct LDAP lookups).

Possible Causes:
Installing sudo-ldap:

The sudo-ldap package can modify nsswitch.conf to prioritize ldap over sss.
This happens because sudo-ldap uses libnss-ldap or libnss-ldapd, which may adjust NSS settings automatically.
SSSD vs. Direct LDAP:

sss (System Security Services Daemon) is typically used when you have an SSSD-based LDAP authentication setup.
ldap directly queries LDAP servers, bypassing SSSD. Source https://www.apunkagames.vip/
