Distributed Winbind

A while back there was a small amount of discussion about winbind, and the
problem of Unix-ID-to-Windows-SID mappings being done independently on each
Samba server. Files being moved between such servers via Unix methods such
as NFS and FTP servers would probably become owned by a different Windows
user.

Is there any interest in having a Master winbind daemon open a network
socket for Client winbind daemons to make requests from? Is this not a
problem for anyone else?
