Why do people on mailing-lists always treat people who make mistakes like
children? You patronising..... person....
Maybe you should consider that this smb.conf has been on a server for a
long time and that servers roles have changed.

wins support # From the pre AD days, perhaps?
enumports command # because we use it
dns forwarder # From a time where we used the internal DNS, perhaps?

Other than the ones that "plain shouldn't be on a DC" (you fail to mention
which those are) why would I remove them?

Yes, the libnss_winbind.so is in place. PAM is irrelevant in this
situation. The OS is Arch Linux.

So having taken your golden advice and removed those lines.... I am in
exactly the same place I was when I first posted just in a slightly more
disheartened mood at the community.
