Didn't appear so from the LDIF entry you posted ... the dn didn't
contain 'id=1'.

Works for me on 9.0 using 2.2.7a-3mdk (ie I can see users in Computer
Management->Local Users and Groups when I add domain users to a local
group). Also worked on 8.2 with everything from 2.2.3a up to 2.2.7a.

Have you tried looking in the logs (maybe increase the log level also)?

I will be releasing new RPMs soon hopefully, just want to try and track
down why the 'add user script' isn't being run when trying to join a
machine to the domain.
