Yes, i have read this even if i have not yet tried it.
What I have not understood is why do I *need* an user with a SID ending in
500 (as the howto says), because I have never had one, and I had no
problems at all. The howto says I need one, but id does not say why, and
what happens id I don't have one.
I suppose can be cause problem in AD mode or with some communication
with windows server.

You say that I can change the SID of a domain user and the clients will not get
confused by this change?
sorry, I changed the SID to 500 for my administrator account, not for
"root" user.
I cannot says if changing root account can make some problem.

Well, this seems to be a good idea anyway.
