6 <para>This parameter specifies whether the
7 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>winbindd</refentrytitle>
8 <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> daemon should operate on users
9 without domain component in their username. Users without a domain
10 component are treated as is part of the winbindd server's own
11 domain. While this does not benefit Windows users, it makes SSH, FTP and
12 e-mail function in a way much closer to the way they
13 would in a native unix system.</para>
14 <para>This option should be avoided if possible. It can cause confusion
15 about responsibilities for a user or group. In many situations it is
16 not clear whether winbind or /etc/passwd should be seen as authoritative
17 for a user, likewise for groups.</para>
