Could there be something wrong with your test system:

rowland at devstation:~$ rpcclient localhost -U'samdom\administrator%xxxxxxxxxx' -c 'lookupnames "rowland at samdom.example.com"'
rowland at samdom.example.com S-1-5-21-1768301897-3342589593-1064908849-1107 (User: 1)
rowland at devstation:~$ rpcclient 192.168.0.6 -U'samdom\administrator%xxxxxxxxxx' -c 'lookupnames "rowland at samdom.example.com"'
rowland at samdom.example.com S-1-5-21-1768301897-3342589593-1064908849-1107 (User: 1)

devstation is a Unix domain member
192.168.0.6 is a Samba AD DC
