[Samba] idmap config / Is it necessary in my smb.conf file?

[lp101]

     I have a bit more clarity after reading the link I posted. If I'm 
correct I only need to define these settings on the member server? This 
way the member server can translate the Windows SIDs (from the Domain 
Controllers) to UID/GIDs (on the member server). Correct?
