Description: service to resolve user and group information from Windows NT servers
Samba is an implementation of the SMB/CIFS protocol for Unix systems,
providing support for cross-platform file sharing with Microsoft Windows, OS X,
and other Unix systems. Samba can also function as a domain controller
or member server in Active Directory or NT4-style domains.
.
This package provides winbindd, a daemon which integrates authentication
and directory service (user/group lookup) mechanisms from a Windows
domain on a Linux system.
.
Winbind based user/group lookups via /etc/nsswitch.conf can be enabled via
the libnss-winbind package. Winbind based Windows domain authentication can
be enabled via the libpam-winbind package.
