You might look into net getlocalsid, net getdomainsid, net setlocalsid and net setdomainsid commands, you may be able to set the samba servers the same as your ldap sid... just a though. Remember, messing around with SID's can cause major issues, so export all sids to file and be ready set them back if everything goes wrong. (net getdomainsid > sidbackup.txt to export them on the samba side of things)
