Hi

In the Samba HOWTO (ch. 24 section 24.3.2) is written

"When winbind is used, the default condition is
that the local user george will be treated as the account DOMAIN\george
and the foreign (non-member of the domain) account will be treated as
MACHINE\george because each has a different SID."

I have enable 'winbind use default domain' in smb.conf in the hope that
it changes the above stated behaviour to treat local user george as
DOMAIN\george

Is this correct to hope for (it seems to work in some cases)?
