Hi Achim,

Thank you, yes that clarifies things.

So until the feature to get user names resolved also for security account
(local system, authenticated users, everyone... those described here:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/243330) there is no way to be sure
rights are the same on all DC except to synchronize idmap.ldb. Clear enough
: )
