Winbind, security = domain, and Active Directory
================================================
-Recent security updates for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003
-have changed the fashion in which user and group list can
-be obtained from domain controllers. In short, the rpc
-mechanisms used by "security = domain" to retrieve users
-and groups is not compatible with these changes. The
-"security = ads" configuration is not affected by the
-Windows protocol changes.
