I believe that error code means  that the directory cannot be found, 
though it could be a permissions problem. It could be something as 
simple as giving Domain Admins a gidNumber attribute.

idmap.ldb works by giving domain users & groups an xidNumber attribute 
(not to be confused with uidNumber & gidNumber attributes), these are 
allocated on a first come basis, so you may have to sync idmap.ldb a few 
times to ensure they match, without doing this, the wrong user or group 
may be used.

Windows has the concept of groups owning files & folders, on Unix a 
group cannot own anything, so, in idmap.ldb, you find groups marked as 
'ID_TYPE_BOTH'. If you give such a group a gidNumber, it becomes just a 
group and cannot own anything, Domain Admins is such a group.
