Well, yes, but I think it was more for testing purposes, so it shouldn't
really matter in that case.

Clients do not care what is in AD (provided there is something there),
it relies on the idmap backend to tell it how to get the Unix ID's. The
'ad' idmap backend 'pulls' the rfc2307 attributes from AD and
the 'rid'
idmap backend uses the RID to calculate the Unix ID. This means that you
can use different backends on different machines and it will work.
If you stop and think about it, Windows doesn't use any idmap backend,
but if you copy a file from a Samba machine to a Windows machine, it
retains its ownership.
