I mentioned in the first email that I was using 'getent group' for testing. 
This unfortunately yields no results other than that of the system group 
listing.

Using jabberd2 with pam auth shows that pam_winbind is working, it's just not 
submitting the username correctly but that's another issue.

Using nss_ldap on the same system and testing with getent works flawlessly.

Even if there was a failure to utilise libnss_winbind properly, it would be 
reported within winbindd debug. At this point I'm not seeing anything, as if 
the library is not where it is suppose to be.

And like I said, I've tried copying, linking and renaming in multiple 
locations to no avail.

This problem isn't mission critical, it's more like an option I tried and 
moved on from but never-the-less, I could see potential for other things I am 
needing to consolidate at a later date.

Thanks again,
