Hi Geza

The format of /private/idmap.ldb changed recently so I think the change 
in output is due to that. It doesn't affect us as we are happy with 
storing rfc2307 in the directory but we are still interested in giving 
winbind a go when it becomes available. We'd be interested to know if 
winbind can cope with home directories according to unixHomeDirectory 
rather than everyone under /home/DOMAIN.

Cheers,
Steve

To make sure it's the wbinfo from S4:
/usr/local/samba/bin/wbinfo -i steve2

getent passwd steve2
