[Samba] User is invalid on this system

A rejoin unfortunately did not fix this issue and interestingly enough Samba failed to find a domain controller by any of the standard lookup means (hosts, lmhosts, WINS and with a broadcast) so I had to use the -s argument to manually specify the server in the 'net ads join' command. This probably signifies deeper issues.

Eventually I just used the current Sernet provided 3.6.9 packages which "resolved" the issue. 

What's so odd about this is that there is a nearly identical secondary host running the same version of Samba used for failover. No issues with the secondary. Go figure.

With what I've read and what I've seen with the rebuilds, there's a good 
chance the rejoin could fix your problem.  That being said, there are no 
guarantees with winbind. It's the part of the Samba suite that has given 
me the most problems over the years, breaking existing configs almost 
every time its internal workings are changed.

I wish you good luck!

After joining the rebuilt system to the domain, it has worked flawlessly ever since.  So, it appears the problem with rid and some of the other idmap backends is somehow related to upgrading, as newly joined systems work as expected.
