[OpenIndiana-discuss] ActiveDirectory UID mapping (netatalk)

Yes, ephemeral IDs are temporary representations of Security Identifiers (SIDs). The idmapd(1m) daemon maintains these in a cache, with time-to-live (TTL) based expiration. There's a library API for turning an ephemeral ID back into a SID - see: idmap_get_sidbyuid http://src.illumos.org/
