[Samba] uidNumbers and gidNumbers for samba multi-domain setup (ldap)

[Pablo Chamorro C.]

Dear friends,

I managed to setup one additional PDC of my LAN, authenticating against 
the same openldap server.  I have this ldap tree:

- ou=users (for both domains), ou=computers (for both domains)
- ou=groups (for the first domain), ou=groups1 (for the second domain)

Please, I have these important doubts:

1. is it ok to have the same gidNumbers for well known groups for both 
domains?  I mean, i.e. is it ok to have cn=Domain Users with gidNumber=513 
for both domains? (and the same gidNumber for Domain Computers, etc?).

2. is it better/possible to use one common sambaUnixIdPool? or is it 
better/needed to have different sources for each domain, to assign let 
smbldap-tools to assign uidNumbers and gidNumbers?

Thank you very much in advance,

Pablo Chamorro C.
