"User" part of TDO is used to lookup data in the AD LDAP and AD GC from
a trusted realm. We use it, for example, by SSSD in FreeIPA when you
have one-way trust to AD established. In this setup you cannot use
host/fqdn at IPA.REALM to authenticate to ldap/fqdn1 at AD.REALM because there
is no trust path in this direction. As result, SSSD has to use the
account from AD.REALM to do searches and it is 'user' object part of TDO
that is used here, NAME$@AD.REALM which used here, and NAME$ has to be
based on the NetBIOS name of the forest root domain. This works well. It
will not work if the salt is derived from IPA.REALM$@AD.REALM.
