[Samba] ldap? Samba? Nss?

[Michal Dobroczynski]

Hello,
If you want to avoid using get**** try setting "ldapsam:trusted =
yes". This way Samba will fetch user info directly from LDAP instead
of going through the getpwent and others which reaaaaaally pull a lot
of data. That should reduce the time needed to login a bit (at least
that worked for me).

Regards,
Michal
