Remember that there is not really a distinction between domain groups and local grops on unix. With winbind (assuming you had used + as the domain seperator), winbind will return groups to the system as <DOMAIN>+<username> for any domain trusted by the domain winbind is a member of. The use of the quotes protects the string from being mangled by samba (especially where there are spaces in the group name). > > But thank you for your answer.It seems that this kind problem is poorly documented... > I have not run winbind in a mutli-domain setup before, but this is supposed to work. You should try some experiments with $ getent passwd $ getent group $ wbinfo -g $ wbinfo -u to see more. Note that getent is a generic command on unix, and will show any entries that are accessible (from local files, NIS, ldap, winbind etc). wbinfo is specific to winbind.
