No, unfortunately standard windows does not look up users list in any
external repository (like our LDAP server) unless the server is AD.

You will not see neither users nor groups in your client.
You have to create users and groups manually and keep them in sync if
you use a windows client at this stage.
That's why we do not mark Windows clients as "officially" supported
right now.

Simo.
