To answer part of my questions.
Nobody is the default group/user for guest access.
In OSX both those have a gid/pid of -1 This is not allowed by the function
winbind_initgroups in smbd/sec_ctx.c
This error never showed up before 10.1.3
BTW. This function is called winbind_initgroups. I don't have winbind
compiled, so why is this. If this is a function that is not only used by
winbind but also by the base smbd, then I think it should not be prefixed
with winbind.
