service to resolve user and group information from Windows NT servers

The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that implements the SMB protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve files to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients, as well as run as a domain controller for Active Directory.

These packages contain snapshot versions of Samba 4, the next-generation version of Samba.

This package provides the winbindd daemon, which provides a service for the Name Service Switch capability that is present in most modern C libraries (like the GNU C Library - glibc.). Please note that the functionality of this version of winbind is behind on that of the winbind package.

The service provided by winbindd is called `winbind' and can be used to resolve user and group information from a Windows NT server. The service can also provide authentication services via an associated PAM module.
