Hello
Samba HOWTO Section 21.5 example 21.5.1:
"# separate domain and username with '+', like DOMAIN+username
winbind separator = +
page cccxxiv: "The only obvious indication that Winbind is being user is
that user and group names take the form DOMAIN\{}user and
DOMAIN\{}group".
What is then the winbind separator? Is it '+' or is it '\'? Or
should I
choose it according to my taste?
Are the {} meant seriously or is it just some bug resulting from the
problems with LaTeX?

It is easy to fix this for PDF only production, but then HTML production breaks. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Email: jht@samba.org

For example, while using squid with NTLM proxy authentication. The windows workstations were sending the username in the DOMAIN\user form, and, unless winbind was configured to use "\" as well, the authentication wouldn't work.
