No, this does work now. The uid's and gid's are mixed for
server B, and A would in theory be able to access ID mapping
entries for SIDs it will never see, but so what. It does not
care about those SIDs anyway.

And you will still need a *:ldap:50001-100000 for all
domains you right now are not aware on.

No, I don't see how this can work. Use idmap_rid for this
setup. What about the SIDs from ADOM that B sees and Samba
server A happened to never have seen and thus has not put in
mappings for? This is the admin chaos I talked about.
