[Samba] Lookup sid with libsmbclient (invoked from c# on mono)

[Vincent Le Toux]

Thanks Aurélien

Can you point to me how I can start LDAP connection using winbind ?
I'm using ldap_simple_bind so far so there is no use of winbind in it.

I'll be happy also if you can point me to the winbind API where you can
input login / password
