Any Centrify Express users here? Its free and its a complete re-write of the Apple AD bind it seems. I wonder if it would be worth it to ditch Apples own tool and move to this seeing as Centrify had AD working before Apple did :D

Is your goal to just give local admin rights to a domain account ?

No, to an AD group.

Does Centrify Express allow you to map uid and gid?

I tried using it with 10.7, but same problem we have with Apple's built-in AD plug-in, incorrect user id and group ids unless you map them. Unfortunately, Apple's AD plug-in can't find the unix groups if you map the user and group correctly. I don't see any mapping option within Centrify Express eg. Map UID to attribute uidNumber.
