Samba / FreeBSD member server in MSFT 2003 AD domain

By following the Samba.org how-to's and various finds on groups.google.com I've succeeded in getting a FreeBSD (5.2.1-RELEASE) / Samb-3.0.0,1 server in to my MSFT 2003 Active Directory domain as a member server, but there is a little problem I'm having trouble resolving.

Newly created user accounts (read as created after joining the Samba server to the domain) in the AD domain gain access to the Samba shares just fine. However, pre-existing user accounts in the AD domain cannot authenticate to the Samba server properly. They receive an NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE.

#kinit newADuser

receives a kerberos key successfully, and

#wbinfo --authenticate=newADuser%'userspassword'

authenticates successfully in all cases.

There is some mention of having to change the passwords of users after some setup step in order to get things working correctly, which I have tried, but it makes no change. My new AD users work, my old ones don't.

This acts like its something I need to do on the Microsoft AD side.

Anyone's experience or ideas on where to find more info would be greatly appreciated.

NAME
idmap_ad - Samba's idmap_ad Backend for Winbind DESCRIPTION
The idmap_ad plugin provides a way for Winbind to read id mappings from an AD server that uses RFC2307/SFU schema extensions. This module implements only the "idmap" API, and is READONLY. Mappings must be provided in advance by the administrator by adding the posixAccount/posixGroup classes and relative attribute/value pairs to the user and group objects in the AD. IDMAP OPTIONS
range = low - high Defines the available matching UID and GID range for which the backend is authoritative. Note that the range acts as a filter. If specified any UID or GID stored in AD that fall outside the range is ignored and the corresponding map is discarded. It is intended as a way to avoid accidental UID/GID overlaps between local and remotely defined IDs. schema_mode = <rfc2307 | sfu > Defines the schema that idmap_ad should use when querying Active Directory regarding user and group information. This can be either the RFC2307 schema support included in Windows 2003 R2 or the Service for Unix (SFU) schema. EXAMPLES
The following example shows how to retrieve idmappings from our principal and trusted AD domains. If trusted domains are present id conflicts must be resolved beforehand, there is no guarantee on the order conflicting mappings would be resolved at this point. This example also shows how to leave a small non conflicting range for local id allocation that may be used in internal backends like BUILTIN. [global] idmap backend = tdb idmap uid = 1000000-1999999 idmap gid = 1000000-1999999 idmap config CORP : backend = ad idmap config CORP : range = 1000-999999 AUTHOR
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed. Samba 3.5 06/18/2010 IDMAP_AD(8)
