Samba3/LDAP: sambaGroupMapping with sambaSIDList or memberUid?

HI!

What's the exact semantics of sambaGroupMapping entry?

sambaGroupMapping is declared as AUXILIARY and the common examples show
it to be used in conjunction with STRUCTURAL object class posixGroup.
But there seems to be another case with attribute sambaSIDList being
used to hold the reference to the group member.

So I wonder whether a user is member of a Samba group
1. if only his uid is in posixGroup->memberUid or
2. whether his sambaSID has also to be added to
sambaGroupMapping->sambaSIDList.

Ciao, Michael.
