Are you entirely sure this is true? I don't yet know how ID mapping
works in Samba.

But. Is the whole idea of IDmapping not importing from a remote server?
(or service?).

Then, should the two groups not always be treated as separate? Why can't
you perform ID mapping only for the remote users? (AD).

That seems to be the whole point of it, right?
