It 's on a samb4/cups domain member (not a DC)

The administrator user is the one of the domain, not a local user:


id administrator

uid=10500(administrator) gid=10513(domain users) groups=10513(domain 
users),10500(administrator),10518(schema admins),10572(denied rodc 
password replication group),10519(enterprise admins),10520(group policy 
creator owners),10512(domain 
admins),70002(BUILTIN+users),70001(BUILTIN+administrators),744000513(Unix 
Group+domain users),744000520(Unix Group+group policy creator 
owners),744000572(Unix Group+denied rodc password replication 
group),744000518(Unix Group+schema admins),744000519(Unix 
Group+enterprise admins),744000512(Unix Group+domain admins)


And in my smb.conf I have no username map, i only have idmapping like:


    idmap config *:backend = tdb
    idmap config *:range = 70001-80000
    idmap config MYDOMAIN:backend  = rid
    idmap config MYDOMAIN:range  = 10000-70000
