Hi Rowland,

FWIW, with 'winbind use default domain = yes' the output is:

# id tmutest
uid=1102339(tmutest) gid=1000513(domain users) groups=1000513(domain
users),1102339(tmutest),10001(BUILTIN+users)

With 4.8.3 (4.8.2 does not produce a result):
# getent passwd tmutest
tmutest:*:1102339:1000513::/home/SPREADSHIRT/tmutest:/bin/false

Saw this too, but didn't know, if the changed behaviour was intended by
this change.

Will do a bug report as requested in the other mail.

Thank you.
