The way you have Samba setup, ALL your AD users & groups are getting
mixed up i.e. normal users & groups and the well known SIDs

The '*' domain is usually only used for the well known SIDs, I would
normally expect to see another few lines, similar to these:

    idmap config MYDOM : backend = rid
    idmap config MYDOM : range = 10000-999999

This is where your users should be mapped to Unix ids, I also wouldn't
have started the '*' range at 1000, this means you cannot have any
normal local Unix users. By using '1000', you will only be able to log
into the Samba machine as the 'root' user if you have network problems
and the AD domain isn't contactable.

Can I suggest you go and read this wiki page:
