Do you have something against the rid backend? Which disavantadges do you
see? It simply works!
The problems I had came most probably from using the AD Controller also as
file server. I know, that's not perfect but sometimes things have to be
done in a certain way in certain scenarios for particular reasons. The
internal winbind maps users/groups to a range starting with 3000000.
Administrator has a UID of 0. How would you fill up the UNIX Attributes
tab for Administrator?
