[Samba] Samba 4.1 gentent, ls, no display domain user name on Primary ACDC but wbinfo -u yes

[Jhon P]

Thanks for the clarification.
 
They are around 80 clients.
All windows 7 and Xp pro.

One member server linux  with Debian 7 for testing the future file server. All on this works fine.

Other servers that are not in the domain

Thanks.
