.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP
This tool is part of the \fBSamba\fR(7) suite\&.

.PP
The \fBwbinfo\fR program queries and returns information created and used by the \fBwinbindd\fR(8) daemon\&.

.PP
The \fBwinbindd\fR(8) daemon must be configured and running for the \fBwbinfo\fR program to be able to return information\&.

.SH "OPTIONS"

.TP
-a username%password
Attempt to authenticate a user via winbindd\&. This checks both authenticaion methods and reports its results\&.


.TP
-c user
Create a local winbind user\&.


.TP
-C group
Create a local winbindd group\&.


.TP
--domain name
This parameter sets the domain on which any specified operations will performed\&. If special domain name '\&.' is used to represent the current domain to which winbindd belongs\&. Currently only the \fB--sequence\fR, \fB-u\fR, and \fB-g\fR options honor this parameter\&.


.TP
-g
This option will list all groups available in the Windows NT domain for which the \fBSamba\fR(7) daemon is operating in\&. Groups in all trusted domains will also be listed\&. Note that this operation does not assign group ids to any groups that have not already been seen by \fBwinbindd\fR(8)\&.


.TP
--get-auth-user
Print username and password used by winbindd during session setup to a domain controller\&. Username and password can be set using '-A'\&. Only available for root\&.


.TP
-G gid
Try to convert a UNIX group id to a Windows NT SID\&. If the gid specified does not refer to one within the idmap gid range then the operation will fail\&.


.TP
-I ip
The \fI-I\fR option queries \fBwinbindd\fR(8) to send a node status request to get the NetBIOS name associated with the IP address specified by the \fIip\fR parameter\&.


.TP
-m
Produce a list of domains trusted by the Windows NT server \fBwinbindd\fR(8) contacts when resolving names\&. This list does not include the Windows NT domain the server is a Primary Domain Controller for\&.


.TP
-n name
The \fI-n\fR option queries \fBwinbindd\fR(8) for the SID associated with the name specified\&. Domain names can be specified before the user name by using the winbind separator character\&. For example CWDOM1/Administrator refers to the Administrator user in the domain CWDOM1\&. If no domain is specified then the domain used is the one specified in the \fBsmb.conf\fR(5) \fIworkgroup \fR parameter\&.


.TP
-N name
The \fI-N\fR option queries \fBwinbindd\fR(8) to query the WINS server for the IP address associated with the NetBIOS name specified by the \fIname\fR parameter\&.


.TP
-o user:group
Add a winbindd local group as a secondary group for the specified winbindd local user\&.


.TP
-O user:group
Remove a winbindd local group as a secondary group for the specified winbindd local user\&.


.TP
-p
Check whether winbindd is still alive\&. Prints out either 'succeeded' or 'failed'\&.


.TP
-r username
Try to obtain the list of UNIX group ids to which the user belongs\&. This only works for users defined on a Domain Controller\&.


.TP
-s sid
Use \fI-s\fR to resolve a SID to a name\&. This is the inverse of the \fI-n \fR option above\&. SIDs must be specified as ASCII strings in the traditional Microsoft format\&. For example, S-1-5-21-1455342024-3071081365-2475485837-500\&.


.TP
--set-auth-user username%password
Store username and password used by winbindd during session setup to a domain controller\&. This enables winbindd to operate in a Windows 2000 domain with Restrict Anonymous turned on (a\&.k\&.a\&. Permissions compatiable with Windows 2000 servers only)\&.


.TP
--sequence
Show sequence numbers of all known domains


.TP
-S sid
Convert a SID to a UNIX user id\&. If the SID does not correspond to a UNIX user mapped by \fBwinbindd\fR(8) then the operation will fail\&.


.TP
-t
Verify that the workstation trust account created when the Samba server is added to the Windows NT domain is working\&.


.TP
-u
This option will list all users available in the Windows NT domain for which the \fBwinbindd\fR(8) daemon is operating in\&. Users in all trusted domains will also be listed\&. Note that this operation does not assign user ids to any users that have not already been seen by \fBwinbindd\fR(8) \&.


.TP
-U uid
Try to convert a UNIX user id to a Windows NT SID\&. If the uid specified does not refer to one within the idmap uid range then the operation will fail\&.


.TP
-x user
Delete an existing local winbind user\&.


.TP
-X group
Delete an existing local winbindd group\&.


.TP
-Y sid
Convert a SID to a UNIX group id\&. If the SID does not correspond to a UNIX group mapped by \fBwinbindd\fR(8) then the operation will fail\&.


.TP
-V
Prints the version number for \fBsmbd\fR\&.


.TP
-h|--help
Print a summary of command line options\&.


.SH "EXIT STATUS"

.PP
The wbinfo program returns 0 if the operation succeeded, or 1 if the operation failed\&. If the \fBwinbindd\fR(8) daemon is not working \fBwbinfo\fR will always return failure\&.

.SH "VERSION"

.PP
This man page is correct for version 3\&.0 of the Samba suite\&.

.SH "SEE ALSO"

.PP
\fBwinbindd\fR(8)

.SH "AUTHOR"

.PP
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell\&. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed\&.

.PP
\fBwbinfo\fR and \fBwinbindd\fR were written by Tim Potter\&.

.PP
The conversion to DocBook for Samba 2\&.2 was done by Gerald Carter\&. The conversion to DocBook XML 4\&.2 for Samba 3\&.0 was done by Alexander Bokovoy\&.
