If you do not want to utilize SSSD, then you can stop and disable the services using the following commands:

    sudo systemctl stop sssd       
    sudo systemctl disable sssd    

If you wish to mend it instead, then make the necessary changes:

    sudo cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sssd/conf/sssd.conf /etc/sssd/.
    sudo chmod 600 /etc/sssd/sssd.conf                               

Then enable and start the services using the following commands:

    sudo systemctl enable sssd    
    sudo systemctl start sssd     

Check the status of the SSSD service:

    sudo systemctl status sssd    

It should normally output the following (similar) message:

Now, restart your computer.
The error message should disappear.
