Description-en: Samba nameservice integration plugins
Samba is an implementation of the SMB/CIFS protocol for Unix systems,
providing support for cross-platform file and printer sharing with
Microsoft Windows, OS X, and other Unix systems. Samba can also function
as an NT4-style domain controller, and can integrate with both NT4 domains
and Active Directory realms as a member server.
.
This package provides nss_winbind, a plugin that integrates
with a local winbindd server to provide user/group name lookups to the
system; and nss_wins, which provides hostname lookups via both the NBNS and
NetBIOS broadcast protocols.
