G'Day Rowland,
Are you really sure that is the case?
The "winbind use default domain" code, which I authored, certainly
isn't intended to do that. It changes the formatting at the nss
interface to strip the domain\ prefix, allowing local logins with pam
etc to avoid typing the domain.
Specifically, in source3/winbindd/winbindd_util.c:assume_domain() in It
changes the domain member to act more like an old-style DC.
The impact of this is deliberatly on fill_domain_username_talloc() and
parse_domain_user(). (There are a few other references, essentially to
mirror this in smbd).

We do need to work out why the RID base here isn't stable.
The most likley reason is that the TDB it is stored in is being deleted
for some reason, or less likly that is is somehow corrupt.
The file is autorid.tdb in "state dir".
Why shouldn't autorid be available on one domain?

If we take the theory that the RID base is becoming randomised, then as
long as the old RID base can be determined by inspection of the
filesystem, then it might be possible to fix a RID base for idmap_rid.
Looking at the code it would be "idmap config CUSTOMER : base_rid
$BASE_RID" so so.
The default range size is 100,000 so these should be contiguous RIDs.

Hilberg,
This all sounds pretty stressful. I'm not sure if you saw Rowland's
reply as he moved the CC to the samba@ list but you might be be
subscribed there.
I wish you all the best fixing this back up. Do consider reaching out
for commercial support if this gets overwealming, but I think I've
plotted a practical way forward.
Once it is settled down, and if this is just a profile server where
each directory is per-user then I would look into resetting the file
ownerships from the unix side and then ACLs from the windows side just
to be sure. There may be gremlins if new files were created while the
wrong idmappings are in effect.
Finally, do try to work out how the autorid.tdb was damaged. We
certainly don't want this happening ever again!
All the best,
Andrew Bartlett
