When I login using DOMAIN\user - a home dir under /home/DOMAIN/user is

I remember having issues after domain registration with Samba home dis
pointing to /home/DOMAIN, so in my ignorance I changed it by hand back
to /home in smb.conf.
Thus logging in as DOMAIN\user or user always goes to /home/user.
Sorry my fault.
As I see it, to use the domain user I will have to move my local user
home dir contents to /home/DOMAIN/user.
But still, where is uid DOMAIN\user stored?
I think it's stored in a Samba tdb file... Ah yes

winbindd_idmap.tdb*
winbindd's local idmap db
I wonder in turn how one would keep these in sync across machines?

Looks like HP have dealt with this in a proprietary way:
http://docs.hp.com/en/B8725-90110/ch09s03.html
"Access to an LDAP-UX Netscape Directory Server as the backend storage
for larger deployments to maintain winbind ID maps across multiple HP
CIFS Servers."
These look interesting:

New Winbind IDmap plugin (ad) for retrieving uid and gid from AD servers which
maintain the SFU user and group attributes.

What does Yast -> Windows Domain Memebership do to my config files?
Isn't a lot of the YaST stuff perl scripts? Could you dig out (e.g. find
it's package and use rpm -ql <package name> ) the one for this YaST
module and read through it?
