Your old users had rfc2307 attributes but your new ones do not. When you create the new user, you have to give him rfc2307 attributes such as uidNumber and gidNumber. In later releases, you can use samba-tool to do this. Otherwise you can use ldbedit or ldbmodify. I doubt whether your debian install is recent enough.
