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