You cannot share users between domains.  If the user is in one domain,
it *must not* be visible to the other domains, you must use a seperate
ldap suffix.

Check your replication, and use Samba 3.0.1, with the 'ldap replication
sleep' parameter.  This allows you to make the system wait until the
slave LDAP server has caught up.

%m is the machine name they login from.
