Winbindd on a Samba PDC allows you to a) support trusted domain users and groups b) support NTLM authenitcation from unix services such as ntlm_auth and pam_winbind. chers, jerry ====================================================================Alleviating the pain of Windows(tm) ------- http://www.samba.org GnuPG Key ----- http://www.plainjoe.org/gpg_public.asc "I never saved anything for the swim back."
