Hi Herman.
This is really a helpful information, but i am not able to understand
why in built group we cant see a mapping for a normal user, as if we
look Builtin is also a OU and we have some Builtin users and groups
in it.
If i create a OU and groups or users in it than i can see all those
but just not with Buitin.
Feel free to correct me, if you find i am wrong.
Thanks for your interest in this.

Well, I have found that Winbind can get confused when you do things in
ADS that you should not do - for example cross linked users and groups
after you dragged records around. WinXP clients may still work, but
the only way to fix Winbind is to delete the offending records in
ADS. The problem is that how you are supposed to find the offending
records is impossible to say. Sometimes you can fix it by trying to
remember when it last worked and deleting everything that was changed
since. Sometimes, the only way to fix things is to give up and
re-install ADS.
Sooo, try to roll back till you get to a working situation, then make
your changes very carefully and with frequent backups. I run ADS on
VMware and take a snapshot before every change I make to it, so I can
roll back without too much hassle as soon as things stop working.
Unfortunately, Winbind is still immature and not as robust as one may
like it to be.
Cheers,
Herman
