does getent passwd steve2 find the user?

Yes, I use LDAP and Kerberos for authentication. The Linux clients
(RedHat) use that as well. But there was an option to configure this
with one of the setup tools. Only thing I had to do was extract the
Kerberos keytab from the Samba4 server.

I'm pretty sure beside the LDAP/Kerberos authentication there were also
options to use AD for user authentication. So that should already be
there.
