-----------

I tried this -- but then I couldn't log in at all!
I'm thinking my winbind is screwy -- that may be all or part of the problem.
Symptoms:

> wbinfo -u  shows: lindaw  (my user name)

wbinfo -n lindaw returns:  (expected)
  S-1-5-21-33333-77777-33333-80026 SID_USER (1)

  BUT:
wbinfo -i lindaw"	says:	 "Could not get info for user lindaw"

wbinfo --own-domain	returns: "BLISS"
wbinfo --ping-dc	returns: "checking the NETLOGON dc connection succeeded"
  BUT:
wbinfo --dsgetdcname=BLISS returns:
  				  "Could not find dc for BLISS"
wbinfo -m
  BUILTIN
  BLISS
wbinfo -m
wbinfo --sid-aliases=S-1-5-21-33333-77777-33333-80026
80026

wbinfo --user-sids=S-1-5-21-33333-77777-33333-80026
Could not get group SIDs for user SID S-1-5-21-33333-77777-33333-80026

So It has partial information, but can't give info on me, can't verify
passwords, can't give groups, but maps user id's...

It DOESN'T show the same groups as "net rpc groups list" -- it shows
a *fraction* of what the net command shows -
net rpc groups list shows 20 groups, 
wbinfo -g shows 8.

Should these be close?  or the same?
How can they be out of sync and if they should be the same, how
do I resync them?
Net groups shows the correct listing.
