You may change it there as well:
- example §5.3
- §20.1: ( at bootom of page): If idmap backend has been specifies as
ldapsam:url ...

The text about using winbind on BDCs and member servers at the end of
paragraph 5.3 would be of great help in paragraph 6.3 as well. ;)

Overall this idmap / winbind thing was merged quite late with the Howto
I suppose, because I did not read it when I set up the PDC / BDC ( about
the time when rc1/rc2 came out ) and the chapter on winbind still seems
to have the winbind 2.2 in mind - overall winbind now seems to be able
to act as a snap in replacement for nss_ldap/pam_ldap, but on the other
hand I tend to stick with the latter in a plain linux server
environment.

no, it just maps everything to -1:

[root at hilbert samba]# net groupmap list
System Operators (S-1-5-32-549) -> -1
Replicators (S-1-5-32-552) -> -1
Guests (S-1-5-32-546) -> -1
Domain Admins (S-1-5-21-1454018726-3595976858-1671193852-512) -> -1
Domain Guests (S-1-5-21-1454018726-3595976858-1671193852-514) -> -1
...

while on the PDC/BDC it is more like this:
[root at leibniz schlegel]# net groupmap list
Domain Admins (S-1-5-21-4157288312-2978303034-1700589767-2201) ->
administratoren
Domain Users (S-1-5-21-4157288312-2978303034-1700589767-512) -> smbuser
Domain Guests (S-1-5-21-4157288312-2978303034-1700589767-514) -> nobody
develop (S-1-5-21-4157288312-2978303034-1700589767-3013) -> develop
...

however, wbinfo -g gives output on BDC and member server:

[root at hilbert samba]# wbinfo -g
RIEGE\Domain Admins
RIEGE\Domain Users
RIEGE\Domain Guests
RIEGE\develop
...

Maybe net groupmap is not intended / necessary on member servers using
winbind? The SIDs get mapped in a correct way now except for the
following issue.

No hints on this one?

definitely. net rpc join, and it succeeded and the PDC added the account
in the ldap tree.

This is what I expects, I am just not sure whether the member servers
SID has to partly match the domains SID or something like this.

I think I figured out that my main problem ( d), member server name
instead of domain name in from of the users name ) is gone if I change
the SID of the member server, on the other hand I expect things to get
odd and break if the SID is not unique...
