I don't know that I can explain it sufficiently, but I'll try.
Essentially, "map untrusted to domain" was a new parameter to make Samba
perform as it did prior to 3.4. "winbind use default name" refers to
something completely different. As the man page indicates, I can ssh
into the system as "valid_user" instead of DOMAIN\valid_user. This
applies to a valid user on a domain host. On the other hand, since the
cameras are not able to join the domain, the new parameter maps
HOSTNAME\camera to DOMAIN\camera.
Others have explained "winbind use default domain" this way:
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_&_Active_Directory
|winbind use default domain = Yes| removes the domain prefix from
usernames, so you can login as /Username/ instead of /DOMAIN\Username/
or in some cases /DOMAIN+Username/ (see next explanation).
http://www.justlinux.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-118512.html
This winbind parameter eliminates the need to use the domain name with
the user/group name. The domain name plus the separator will
automatically be prepended to the user name.
Not perfect, but I hope it helps.
