[Samba] how to join to AD ?

[mistofeles]

I reinstalled the system and tried to follow the guidelines above.

One thing:
There is these lines in smb.conf and I have found no good information about
them:
 idmap uid = 10000-2000000  
 idmap gid = 5000-2000000  

 idmap config MY_DOMAIN:range = 1000 - 300000000

It seems that the users get their local UID / GUID as 10000 / 5000 or above
as set in 'idmap uid' and 'idmap gid'.

What is the meaning of this  'idmap config MY_DOMAIN:range' and how should I
set it ?

We have a rather large domain of about 30,000 users. Mys own server will
have max 100 users.
Is there some preferred walues to set on those lines above ?
I have no administrator rights to the AD.

Another thing.
I have a right to join a PC to our domain. Before I could do that, I had to
adduser myself in my server with the username I have in the domain. After
that 'kinit' and 'net ads join' work.

BTW: is krb5 necessary for the authentication ?
