Well I was finally able to populate groups using mod_shared_roster_ldap. However, presence appeared to be partially broken, authorizations were not being sent out.

As you can read in few last post here, that mod_shared_roster_ldap is very problematic and unfortunately, not many people have luck with this mod + AD.. include me.
