Hello,

I'm doing R&D on using Winbind to authenticate Active Directory users (W2K3S 
R2) on RHEL 6 servers. I have a working implementation of this using idmap_rid 
as the backend. I followed 'configuration 1' in the following guide:

http://www.redhat.com/rhecm/rest-rhecm/jcr/repository/collaboration/jcr:system/jcr:versionStorage/ae40084d0a052601783f1ea42715cdef/26/jcr:frozenNode/rh:resourceFile

My question revolves around 'User Private Groups'. I noticed my AD users UID's 
do not have matching GID's. I came across the following:

http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/groupmapping.html#id2596644

This seems to indicate I cannot implement UPG because Windows will not allow 
user and groups of the same name.

Thank you,
