I have been doing further testing (just out of curiosity) with a 2012R2
DC and a Samba Unix domain member:

root at fileserver:~# rpcclient 192.168.0.43 -U'example\administrator%xxxxxxxxxx' -c 'lookupnames "rowland at example.com"'
rowland at example.com S-1-5-21-1739413417-3060112075-1959733387-1104 (User: 1)

fileserver is the Samba Unix domain member
192.168.0.43 is the 2012R2 DC

So I repeat, could there be something wrong with the test or the Unix
domain member ?
