That makes 'qqeda11' an AD user.

Nope, cat /etc/passwd | grep 'rowland' produces no output for myself, 
but 'getent passwd rowland' produces:

rowland:*:10000:10000:Rowland Penny:/home/rowland:/bin/bash

You cannot have the same user in /etc/passwd and AD (and before someone 
jumps in and says you can, yes it is possible, but it isn't supported 
and leads to problems like this)

I would suggest you use my BOTCH (but do not use any other AD users or 
groups) or, better still, use the 'ad' backend and give your user the 
uidNumber '79846'. Either way, delete the user on the Unix machine.
