If you set up a newer version of Samba (2.2.3a), specifically
"winbind"
you can do a "getent passwd" command and retrieve all users (local
linux
and NT Domain users) in the same format as /etc/passwd. This includes
the "Full Name" field from the NT domain accounts. It would be simple
to extract the full name from a specific ID in this format.

Hello,
I need to query additional information about NT domain users (especially
the realname) from a PDC for display in a web frontend running on a Linux
box. But so far I've been unable to find anything within the samba suite
that seems to be able to do that. Does anybody have a clue what I can use
for that purpose?
