That is correct, there is no way for a Unix domain member to use two
idmap backends on one domain. If you want some of your users to have a
specific ID, then you must use the 'ad' idmap backend and give all your
users and groups RFC2307 attributes. Otherwise you use the 'autorid' or
'rid' idmap backend (there are others) and allow Samba to calculate the
Unix IDs.
