Is this a better, or preferred, method than
winbind trusted domains only = yes
I ask because I used the above in my smb.conf during testing and it 
works in conjunction with an existing NIS domain where sAMAccountName is 
guaranteed to match the corresponding NIS user.
But I haven't gone production yet.
