Re: [Samba] winbind: only domains option/patch
Thanks Volker! I would like to add my voice to those requesting this enhancement! We have a highly distributed number of domains that all trust each other, but member servers only have access to their local domain controllers. Having the ability to restrict the number of domains that the Samba server tries to contact will be a *very* useful addition.

[Samba] winbind: only domains option/patch
Hi. In January 2009 a patch was sent to this list that introduced the winbind: only domains option to smb.conf (http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2009-January/062706.html). This provides the inverse of winbind: ignore domains and the creator of the patch explained that this was more useful (to him) that having to explicitly exclude domains. Can anyone confirm if this patch was accepted, and if so, what version of Samba supports winbind: only domains? If the patch has not been accepted, is there a particular reason why not?
