Can't get clients to authenticate against 389 DS using SSSD

I've spent hours trying to get this to work and tried everything I can think of. From what I can tell the server works fine. I configured the sssd.conf and used authconfig to enable sssd. nsswitch is using "files sss".

I'm able to do ldapsearch to the server and get results, but doing "getent passwd user" returns nothing. If i do netstat -anp i can see that the sssd service has a connection to port 389 on my server's IP. Not really sure what the problem is. There are some strange things in the sssd logs below i can't decipher.
