'getent group' only returns a few groups - Solaris 8

[Travis Freeland]

In order to get samba 2.2.4 working correctly under solaris (where we 
rely heavily on NIS unix groups) I had to make a couple of changes to 
username.c (basically take it back to the 2.0 style unix group checking 
code .. and take out the winbind group check which was failing because 
we dont run winbind).

I'm assuming that those who are testing samba and ok'ing a production 
release are only testing a winbind implementation?
