Next one: Once I'm done with my winbind cleanup the next
project there is to provide an alternative to nss_ldap or
nss_nis: winbind as a member of a samba domain will just be
a plug-in replacement for nss_ldap, secure without the
hassles to set up TLS transport. The security will be
provided the same way Windows does it, by means of the
workstation membership in the domain.
