Unfortunately not.

The winbindd daemon works well under FreeBSD, as does pam_winbind and
squid's winbind authentication.  I'm making extensive use of it for both
these  functions.

What doesn't work is libnss_winbind for auto-magic unix user/group accounts.
FBSD's nss support is virtually non-existent.

Jacques Vidrine has started work on nss
(http://www.nectar.cc/zope/freebsd/nsswitch) support, but had to set it
aside.
