Those are the same two warnings I always get, so you're doing it right.

BTW: Your comments about pam being optional are correct. I got the idea from
the documentation that it was required, but then I noticed winbindd and
Samba user authentication both still worked without it. Now I don't use it
at all. All it does is allow Windows users to make use of Unix services
which require authentication, like telnet and FTP.

Sorry for false alarm. I did not had developer's files for libpam
(libpam0g-dev package in debian) and when I got it, I forgot to
recompile everything again. Now, I've compiled with 2 warnings (for
winbindd):

nsswitch/winbind_pam.c:30 warning: static declaration for
'parse_domain_user' follows non-static
nsswitch/winbind_pam.c:35 warning: static declaration for
'trust_keystr' follows non-static

Beside that, compilation of winbind were nice-n-easy.

once again, sorry for false alarm
everything seems to be ok, now
