I have strange uid/gid problem.

I am testing Samba 3-beta1 and Samba is ADS member to W2003 server.

Everythings work, wbinfo, getent passwd and so on.

Now to the problem:

When I list the users with getent passwd I get:

Administrator:x:10000:10000:Administrator:/global/mnt1/SAMBA/home/TEST.SE/administrator:/bin/sh
Guest:x:10001:10002:Guest:/global/mnt1/SAMBA/home/TEST.SE/guest:/bin/sh
krbtgt:x:10002:10000:krbtgt:/global/mnt1/SAMBA/home/TEST.SE/krbtgt:/bin/sh
root:x:10003:10000:root:/global/mnt1/SAMBA/home/TEST.SE/root:/bin/sh
patrikg:x:10004:10000:patrik 
Gustavsson:/global/mnt1/SAMBA/home/TEST.SE/patrikg:/bin/sh
fmuser:x:10005:10000:fmuser:/global/mnt1/SAMBA/home/TEST.SE/fmuser:/bin/sh

When I list the users with wbinfo -u
Administrator
Guest
krbtgt
root
patrikg
fmuser

When I am using a W2k client and log into the W20003 Server and access a 
share on Samba with my user (patrikg)
is remaped to
pgpc (10.0.0.140) connect to service profiles initially as user 
TEST.SE\patrikg (uid=10006, gid=10003)

That uid 10006 and group 10003 can't be displayed with getent passwd and 
getent group.

Why do I get uid 10006 when I should have 10004 ?
