I thought you indicated the users were on NT4?
 
If so, I might have a tool I haven't publicly published that can populate SID Histories but will require a trust. I will have to dig around, it was something I started playing with and then dropped it because something else came up.

Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] SID History Filtering

The problem is, we have no intention of migrating the users, as we used MSDSS to pull the users into the new AD structure from Novell...sorry I failed to mention that previously.

After the migration of a user (using ADMT or any third party migration
tool), you can still access the resources in NT 4.0 using SID History
(not SID Filtering!).  You have to Re-ACL (Security Translation) the
resources using the migrated account before removing the SID History.
Then you can move all resource servers to new AD Domain.

Regarding the SID Filtering, in windows 2000 SP4 and Windows 2003, SID
Filtering is enabled by default.  It is a best practice to enable SID
Filtering because of the security reasons.  But during the migration,
especially if you are using SID History, you have to disable SID
Filtering.  But make sure to enable after the complete migration.
