Correct. That is my idmap configuration.

If you set up PAM 'getent passwd testuser' will work.

<bangs head against a brick wall HARD> That is NOT my problem because I am
not trying to get unix auth to work... I am trying to get wbinfo to work
wbinfo and 'getent passwd username' do not require PAM to be configured.

To prove this, I have just created a dummy domain controller and DID NO PAM
CONFIGURATION AT ALL and guess what, 'getent passwd username' works, as do
the wbinfo lines. So will you please stop harping on about PAM. It has
NOTHING to do with this issue. My problem is something deep within samba.
Something has gone AWOL somewhere. I don't believe it is a configuration
issue.

@Louis - Rowland is very good at parroting back meaningless information and
proving that "something should work" however he is utterly useless at
getting to the bottom of an issue, or understand that this MIGHT NOT BE a
configuration issue. I don't know that makes him a "good guy"
