Depending on your nsswitch.conf, ldap users may come behind local users but conceptually they are in the same namespace and you have no unique mapping name <-> uid/gid anymore. In short: Don't do that, instead point all your fileservers to your LDAP server, delete local users if they exist in ldap and migrate the data to new uids/gids.
