[Samba] Active directory and winbind RID/SID to uid and gid maping across several linux servers

We are using a windows server 2003 active directory as our single sign on server. I have been able to get our RHEL4U6 servers to authenticate with active directory. My concern is that the RID mapping to unix uid/gid range (15000-2) is stored locally on each machine in a tdb database. So far
