Ah I see. I didn't mean to offend.
No offense perceived :)

Hi
That's good to know it wasn't a misunderstanding.

Most of our LAN uses Linux with only a few m$ boxes. The Samba4 LDAP is excellent compared to openLDAP, so I guess that's our main priority.

What I _do_ have is is fast mapping via nss-pam-ldapd, where everything just works. All rfc2307 comes from the directory by default. Anything you like. loginShell, uinixHomeDirectory. . . On a per user or group basis. Total flexibility.

In comparison, winbind seems overcomplicated and restrictive (and simply does not work with either Ubuntu nor openSUSE 3.6.3). It also seems very restricted in that we have turn off unix attributes and use wide links so we can symlink to the only available folder for unixHomeDirectory.

Anyway, I've not given up yet, but it really does look like winbind is past it's sell by date;)

Cheers and thanks for your continued support,
Steve
