It appears that nsswitch/libnss_wins.so doesn't get built when the configure option --without-winbind is specified. Is this not useful when not using winbind? I thought it would allow a wins lookup for hosts on a Samba PDC regardless of whether or not winbind was being used. Thanks. Chris

I have verified that using "wins" in nsswitch.conf does nothing without libnss_wins.so. So I still suspect it should be built even when using --without-winbind. Yes? No? Maybe?
Hello, I've been using the workaround described at http://www.x-tend.be/~fred/howtos/samba3.html#13 to allow a NetApp filer to join my Samba domain. Apparently the ability to chain multiple passdb backend entries goes away with version 3.0.23. Said workaround seems to rely on this functionality. For now I've reverted to 3.0.22, but I wonder if anyone knows of any alternative ways to join a NetApp to a Samba domain controller?
