Hello Rowland and Christian

Thanks for your replies...

Yes ONEVISION and MYDOM are the very same here. Copy/Paste.

So on the PDC I need the
ldap xxxx
lines for ldap connectivity

and the passdb backend line for the ldap hostname

and the 
idmap config *
idmap config ONEVISION
stuff

On the member server I also need the same 
idmap config *
idmap config ONEVISION
stuff.

Right?

The linux servers serving the samba shares also serve the same folders via 
NFS. We 
have concurrent use of windows, linux and mac users via SMB and NFS so ids 
must
be correct on all OSes. Our central brain is here our LDAP providing the 
exact infos

I will try this tomorrow morning.

Thanks for your help so far!
