The computer was moved into another network  (previous ontold)
That did effect the SID
Forcing the SID to the previous value was done wrong.

Right way to get matching SIDs in samba & ldap
was:

  /etc/init.d/samba stop
  cd /var/lib/samba ; rm *
  smbpasswd -w secret  # allows samba to read from ldap
  /etc/init.d/samba start  # ldap SID into samba databases
  /etc/init.d/samba restart  # get the died smbd running again
