Hi Michael,

How does that work? Any major wrinkles?

I'm not feeling really comfortable with winbind assigning all UIDs and GIDs on a system, as it does need to coexist with other means and tools for Unix user management.

Reassigning their IDs is a major pain, and often impossible.

If winbind could only be used when taking over ID management
entirely, we would be in trouble. So this behaviour needs to
be at least optional...

Cheers!
Michael
