That might be a question equally well posted to samba-technical@samba.org :-)

You should not use LDAP, but the LsaLookupSids or DSCrackNames RPC calls an AD provides if you need names.
Samba's winbind provides simple APIs for this.

In the Windows world, SIDs are sufficient for providing access tokens for local resource access. In Unix world, the equivalent would be uid's or gid's. Translating SIDs to those is a world of its own, search the net for "idmapping".

With best regards,
