hello,
I have a Linux Client (debian sarge) which shares a folder via Samba
(3.0.14a).
A remote client who wants to mount that share needs to authenticate himself.
Like in: mount -t smbfs -o username=user1,password=secret

My Samba now have to check the auth against a Active directory.

Now my question:
Do I need winbind on my client?

Because, winbind only maps sid to uid and uid to sid.
In case of only authentication work of samba that is not neccessary.
Or am I wrong???

Thanks for your help
