Just in case anybody encounters this issue I found that if the "root" 
user is named anything diferent from "Administrator" or has 0 as its GID 
samba will set it's "Primary Group SID" to 513, regardless of what the 
user has stored in LDAP. Renaming the user to "Administrator" and 
setting its GID to anything but 0 solved the problem.


Thank you very much
