Hi sssd is an alternative to using winbind to extract information from AD. It may help the OP to try it instead of winbind. Here are a few of the advantages we have found. - sssd is supported: if you have a problem, it will be resolved one day to the next. - It has only one branch which gives the same results with the same configuration for both samba and smbd. - It does not need entries in smb.conf At the moment, winbind seems to be under development. I'm sure that once it is finished, it will be just as good as sssd at extracting consistent information from AD. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
