Following-up to myself...

Started over with a new user...

$ samba-tool user add someuser
New Password:
Retype Password:
User 'someuser' created successfully
$ wbinfo --name-to-sid someuser
   S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-1110 SID_USER (1)
$ ldbedit -e vi -H /var/lib/samba/private/idmap.ldb
   objectsid=S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-1110
no matching records - cannot edit

Login on my laptop as a domain user (e.g.: SOMEDOM\someuser), then...

$ ldbedit -e vi -H /var/lib/samba/private/idmap.ldb
   objectsid=S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-1110
# editing 1 records
# record 1
dn: CN=S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-1110
cn: S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-1110
objectClass: sidMap
objectSid: S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-1110
type: ID_TYPE_BOTH
xidNumber: 3000024
distinguishedName: CN=S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-1110

Can somebody 'splain this?

Thanks,
Jim
