Please try with

     idmap backend = tdb
     idmap uid = some uninteresting range
     idmap gid = some uninteresting range

     idmap config YOURDOMAINNAMEHERE : backend  = ad
     idmap config YOURDOMAINNAMEHERE : range = the range you want your 
uids/gids to be

Like in http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/idmap_ad.8.html
