Your solution is actually a workaround. It isn't taking advantage of what LDAP as a naming service is designed to, i.e. central management and unicity of the database.

that might be true if you think of centralizing different OS features into one !!
other would be having a separate LDAP for Solaris , which requires more effort in terms of support and maintenance.

thanks anyway

Your opening question was about avoiding maintaining admin users in 100+ servers by centralizing their accounts on a LDAP directory, AD in your case. Choosing to maintain the user attributes on each of these servers while it is possible to have this table stored on a single location is, in my opinion, not the best solution.
