I have a Samba AD DC that I provisioned with --rfc2307.

I also have a separate Samba file server that is joined to this domain, and its smb.conf is configured with idmap_rid.

So far everything works fine, I can access the files and folder and set permissions and authenticate access to those folders with the Samba AD.

But re-reading the Samba documentation now it seems like I should be using idmap_ad for all Samba domain members, since the primary DC was configured with RFC2307. Though everything seemingly works fine now, I'm wondering if this might cause problems down the line.

Both servers are running on Ubuntu Server 20.04.
