When I set up my initial users for the Samba domain i did not realize that
RIDs were supposed to be dynamic. I was creating the user as a posixAccount
in LDAP, and then adding the Samba elements via a script that I wrote.
Their RIDs are the same as their UID. For instance if I have a user with
uidNumber 1036, her SID would be <domain-SID>-1036. This is fine except for
idmapping for member servers, for ACLs. I have about 30 users with this
problem. Is there a non-disruptive way for me to convert their RIDs to be
algorithmic based on their UIDs, without destroying their roaming profiles
etc? If not I think we will just have to deal with not being able to use
ACLs on member servers, but I thought I would query first. To reiterate, we
are using a LDAP backend.
