Defining the next UID/GID number to use

Every time a UID/GID number is assigned using Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC), the next UID/GID number is stored inside the Active Directory. By default, ADUC starts assigning UID and GID numbers at 10000.

If you setup a new Samba AD and want to use a different start value, you will need to add the counting attributes before using ADUC for the first time:

# ldbedit -H /usr/local/samba/private/sam.ldb -b \
  CN=samdom,CN=ypservers,CN=ypServ30,CN=RpcServices,CN=System,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com

msSFU30MaxUidNumber: 10000
msSFU30MaxGidNumber: 10000

With the same command you can change the values. E. g. if you require to start UID numbers at 20000 and GIDs at 50000, adapt the values to your requirements:

msSFU30MaxUidNumber: 20000
msSFU30MaxGidNumber: 50000
