Turns out that sometimes (during various restarts) results will be
obtained with:
   idmap config * : backend = tdb
However, as previously noted, no winbind_idmap.tdb file is created and
the results are always the same. Basically the "idmap config" settings
seem to have no effect, regardless of type (tdb, rid, hash) or range
the result for 'getent passwd' (when I get one) is always:
TESTDOMAIN\root:*:322438120:322437633:root:/home/TESTDOMAIN/root:/bin/false
TESTDOMAIN\me:*:322438122:322437633::/home/TESTDOMAIN/me:/bin/false
TESTDOMAIN\you:*:322438123:322437633::/home/TESTDOMAIN/you:/bin/false
TESTDOMAIN\test:*:322438126:322437633::/home/TESTDOMAIN/test:/bin/false
