[Samba] winbind pipe is where?

Hi folks, I've got a few machines that I want to setup winbind on, so 
they can auth their users against the AD win2k server I have here.  On 
top of that, I want to map their home directories from one to a few others.

So, I'll need to make sure their user databases are in sync. 

No problem, I thought, I'll just nfs map /var/cache/samba and be done 
with it.

Well, as it turns out, while the default build from the samba group is 
to put the winbind pipe in /tmp, the redhat series likes to stuff it in 
/var/cache/samba along with the database files.  So, what I need to know 
is this:  Is there a way to redirect that without having to recompile?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Sean
