<listitem><para>On large installations using <citerefentry><refentrytitle>winbindd</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> it may be
necessary to suppress the enumeration of users through the <command moreinfo="none">setpwent()</command>,
<command moreinfo="none">getpwent()</command> and
<command moreinfo="none">endpwent()</command> group of system calls. If
the <parameter moreinfo="none">winbind enum users</parameter> parameter is
<constant>no</constant>, calls to the <command moreinfo="none">getpwent</command> system call
will not return any data. </para>

enumeration may cause some programs to behave oddly. For
example, the finger program relies on having access to the
full user list when searching for matching
usernames. </para>
