Dear Franz,

This means that the user membership data from winbindd does not reach Linux
kernel. Namely,
id says that the user is just a member of WHO-HQ-1\Domain Users groupd, but
wbinfo -r says that he is also in many other groups. 
This looks like an instance of this bug:

I don't know if trusted domains are also affected by this bug, but this
should be related somehow. 


Could you please add a comment to that bug report describing your case?
This should bring attention of Samba developers to this problem...

With best regards,
