[Samba] UID mapping inconsistent. - Samba 3.6.24/25

[Robert Martel]

Yes, I know that version is obsolete and as soon as I can actually get 
the later versions of Samba to run and behave on my Solaris 10 boxes i 
will upgrade.

AD member servers.  Using rid to map UID numbers as not available from 
our AD folks.

Two of the machines are going on their merry own way rather than 
creating the same UID numbers for AD users that other samba servers are 
using.

On two 3.6.2x machines this works peachy keen:

    winbind use default domain = yes
    template homedir = /home/%U
    template shell = /usr/bin/bash
    idmap config * : backend = tdb
    idmap config * : range =  10000-99999
    idmap config CSUNET:  default = yes
    idmap config CSUNET:  backend = rid
    idmap config CSUNET:  range =  2000000-19999999

    winbind enum users = no
    winbind enum groups = no
    winbind use default domain = yes
    winbind nested groups = Yes
    allow trusted domains = no

user in question gets UID 2091888.  He gets same UID on linux machine 
running Samba 4.2.10-Debian and a different Solaris machine running 
Samba 4.4.6

On two other production machines he gets
10420 one one and  10389 on the other.

I do not understand why UIDs are being pulled from the "*" section and 
not the "CSUNET" section as they should be.

Any thoughts on this...other than upgrade Samba that is.

Thank you
Bob
