Are we talking about the DC here ?
Have you added uidNumber & gidNumber attributes to AD ?

If you have, uncomment (remove the '#') from '#idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 =

Do you have only one DC ?
It is better if you have at least two and backup the domain with samba-tool.

Have you run 'net ads testjoin' on the Unix domain member ?
