Rob,

Whether or not CIFS authenticates with AD or how CIFS server
performs user authentication in general is irrelevant to identity
mapping here because it's the idmap service which does the mapping not
CIFS server. idmap engineers can comment on any ID mapping questions.
You can also take a look at the project webpage here:

Thanks,
Afshin
