[Samba] Retry: Mapping AD domain users to UNIX users

[Nigel.Pain at scotland.gsi.gov.uk]

Many thanks (somewhat belated) to all those who made suggestions about
this matter. However, I'm still no further forward, having tried:
 
Using a usermap file to translate between upper and lower case account
names.
(Finally) managing to compile 3.0.28 and using idmap_nss.
Not using Winbind.
 
In all cases, user accounts appear in file properties on Windows
machines as:
 
u123456 (Unix User\u123456)
 
I'm sure I must be missing something somewhere.
