Thanks for that.   You are right, or partially so.   I had given user test2 Unix attributes using ADUC, and also Domain Users and
Domain Admins.   However, when you go back into ADUC Unix Attributes tab for Domain Users and Domain Admins I get the error:
"Unwilling to Perform".  When I dismiss that the correct settings are there.

So now I've allocated uidNumbers to all users and getent passwd on the domain member server now lists all the users.  However, the
auto-crreated folders, whilst they show the correct permissions the user still gets "access denied" and the Drive letter is not
connected at logon.   On the other hand users with home folders on the DC work OK.    So there's still something wrong.   Do I still
need to setup rid as the backend?

On the DC the owner and group are shown thus:
root at debian-dc1:~# ls -l /srv/users
total 16
drwxrwx---+ 2 root                                             root  4096 Mar 27 23:30 test1
drwxrwx---+ 4 MICROLYNX\denied rodc password replication group users 4096 Mar 27 14:47 test2

On the Member server they are shown:
root at debian-m1:~# ls -l /srv/users
total 32
drwxrwx---+ 2 administrator domain users 4096 Mar 24 23:42 test1
drwxrwx---+ 2 administrator domain users 4096 Mar 27 14:48 test2
drwxrwx---+ 2 administrator domain users 4096 Mar 27 14:45 test3
drwxrwx---+ 2 administrator domain users 4096 Mar 27 14:45 test4

Also shouldn't the uidNumbers and gidNumbers be the same on both the DC and the member server?  (the DC's range seems to be 30000
upwards whereas the member server is as specified in ADUC.)

The smb.conf on the DC has the line:
       idmap config MICROLYNX:range = 10000-99999

or is that something different?

I haven't setup PAM as I thought that was only needed if users need to log into the member server's console, which they don't.   My
/etc/nsswitch.conf is as follows:

# /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try:
# `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file.

#passwd:         compat
passwd:         files winbind
#group:          compat
group:          files winbind
shadow:         compat
gshadow:        files

hosts:          files dns
networks:       files

protocols:      db files
services:       db files
ethers:         db files
rpc:            db files

netgroup:       nis

and I had created the two symbolic links to libnss_winbind.so.2:

root at debian-m1:~# ls -l /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_winbind.so*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Mar 21 19:24 /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_winbind.so -> /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_winbind.so.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Mar 21 19:26 /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_winbind.so.2 -> /usr/local/samba/lib/libnss_winbind.so.2

Users can connect to the \\debian-m1\users share but not to the own folder, so I assumed authentication is working without the need
for PAM.

Incidentally the log-winbind-idmap logfile is full of errors like this:

[2016/03/28 00:24:31.265357,  1] ../source3/winbindd/idmap_ad.c:523(idmap_ad_sids_to_unixids)

Let me know if you need more info.   Once again many thanks for your help.
