Good question, the answer is simple, we simply migrated from an old
server to a new one. So in fact it is neither of the two case but
another one :

We had a completely working set of users accounts and folders.
We moved it to the new server.
To make them work we launched the reconstruct.
It works perfectly except for some folders...
