you can use the idmap backend of "nss" to get the old behavior of
mapping the Windows account name to the same account name in Unix.
mmm for "idmap backend" the man smb.conf say:
idmap_tdb (default)
idmap_ldap
idmap_rid
idmap_tdb
and not documented in this lines
idmap_ad
I think what you mean is the "winbind nss info" parameter, which is used to
get nss info like "home dir" and "login shell" for unix users from active
directory with existing windows user/group (called mapping).
Nah, he means what he means (at least that's my guess).
I use a modified nss_ldap (that does /novel/ things) combind with samba. In
my smb.conf I have:
idmap config MYDOMAIN:backend = nss
Works like a *charm*. Against a big AD (>90k users) with lots of groups it
works great.
