Please note that those options have a special purpose and should not be
needed in your setup. Nevertheless they might lead to a working
solution by hiding the original issue. With those two option a domain is
pre-created in the idmapping code. If the SID matches the domain SID of
your user the user will get a POSIX ID and you won't see the errors you
posted earlier. But in general the AD provider is able to auto-detect all
domain in your forest and create the needed idmapping entries
automatically. I assume that there is an issue to detect of domain and
its domain SID or to create the needed idmapping entries. This is why I
asekd for the full logs.
