Indeed. The only way to safely import a list of users who already have
SIDs is to migrate them to Samba 4.0's AD DC using one of the supported
migration tools.
These are 'samba-tool domain join dc' and 'samba-tool domain
classicupgrade'.
Perhaps I need to address why the "classicupgrade" did not work. I see now that
I did not pass the --dbdir option when running it before. I'll try again.
If I could change the subject somewhat, I am also not clear on how to configure
SAMBA4 and the DNS server if my network has an existing DNS server on another
machine and I don't really want to move it. The DNS server is a stock install
of bind from the distro's repository: bind-9.8.2-0.17.rc1.el6_4.4.x86_64
