[Samba] winbind - getent passwd

[Doug Aldridge]

Noel,

That was me. I do have the symbolic link but I still have the same results.
I'm not sure it's causing me any problems though. Can anyone think of why it
might be a problem to have wbinfo -u list only NT users and getent passwd
return both NT and linux users?

Thanks,
Doug
