idmapd only maps identities between Windows and Solaris. Currently the 
only user of this service if the CIFS server. If you want to use idmap
with AD you must configure the CIFS server to perform an AD join.
idmapd does not require any extra schema definitions. It does not
use the RFC2307 schema. It knows how to search AD to translate SIDs to 
Windows names.
