I also only use ldap the same way without any winbind.

Hi
I've never understood why we have to use winbind when using Linux clients.
It seems a complicated way to go about uid/gid mapping.
All we do is add posixAccount, uidNumber and gidNumber +any of other
2307 stuff you may need to the user record in LDAP. Maybe the problem before
has been with the poor performance of nss-ldap. But with the new nss-ldapd
nslcd, the user and group mapping is perfect and very fast.
It's just as good as reading from a local file even on a busy lan.
HTH
Cheers,
Steve
