NAME

       wbinfo - Query information from winbind daemon

SYNOPSIS

       wbinfo  [-auser%password]  [--all-domains]  [--allocate-gid]  [--allocate-uid] [-Ddomain] [--domaindomain] [-g] [--getdcnamedomain] [--get-
	auth-user] [-Ggid] [-h] [-iuser] [-Iip] [-Kuser%password] [-m] [-nname] [-Nnetbios-name] [--own-domain] [-p] [-ruser]  [-ssid]	[--separa-
	tor] [--sequence] [--set-auth-useruser%password] [-Ssid] [-t] [-u] [--user-domgroupssid] [--user-sidssid] [-Uuid] [-V] [-Ysid]

DESCRIPTION

       This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.

       The wbinfo program queries and returns information created and used by the winbindd(8) daemon.

       The winbindd(8) daemon must be configured and running for the wbinfo program to be able to return information.

OPTIONS

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

	  Note
	  Do not be tempted to use this functionality for authentication in third-party applications. Instead use ntlm_auth(1).

       --allocate-gid
	  Get a new GID out of idmap

       --allocate-uid
	  Get a new UID out of idmap

       --all-domains
	  List all domains (trusted and own domain).

       --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 --sequence, -u, and -g options honor this parameter.

       -D|--domain-info domain
	  Show most of the info we have about the domain.

       -g|--domain-groups
	  This option will list all groups available in the Windows NT domain for which the samba(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 win-
	  bindd(8).

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

       --getdcname domain
	  Get the DC name for the specified domain.

       -G|--gid-to-sid 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 oper-
	  ation will fail.

       -i|--user-info user
	  Get user info.

       -I|--WINS-by-ip ip
	  The -I option queries winbindd(8) to send a node status request to get the NetBIOS name associated with the IP address specified by  the
	  ip parameter.

       -K|--krb5auth username%password
	  Attempt to authenticate a user via Kerberos.

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

       -n|--name-to-sid name
	  The -n option queries winbindd(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 smb.conf(5) workgroup parameter.

       -N|--WINS-by-name name
	  The -N option queries winbindd(8) to query the WINS server for the IP address associated with the NetBIOS name  specified  by  the  name
	  parameter.

       --own-domain
	  List own domain.

       -p|--ping
	  Check whether winbindd is still alive. Prints out either 'succeeded' or 'failed'.

       -r|--user-groups 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.

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

       --separator
	  Get the active winbind separator.

       --sequence
	  Show sequence numbers of all known domains

       --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).

       -S|--sid-to-uid sid
	  Convert a SID to a UNIX user id. If the SID does not correspond to a UNIX user mapped by winbindd(8) then the operation will fail.

       -t|--check-secret
	  Verify that the workstation trust account created when the Samba server is added to the Windows NT domain is working.

       -u|--domain-users
	  This	option	will  list  all  users	available  in the Windows NT domain for which the winbindd(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
	  winbindd(8)

       --user-domgroups SID
	  Get user domain groups.

       --user-sids SID
	  Get user group SIDs for user.

       -U|--uid-to-sid 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 opera-
	  tion will fail.

       -Y|--sid-to-gid sid
	  Convert a SID to a UNIX group id. If the SID does not correspond to a UNIX group mapped by winbindd(8) then the operation will fail.

       -V
	  Prints the program version number.

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

EXIT STATUS

       The wbinfo program returns 0 if the operation succeeded, or 1 if the operation failed. If the winbindd(8) daemon is not working wbinfo will
       always return failure.

VERSION

       This man page is correct for version 3.0 of the Samba suite.

AUTHOR

       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.

       wbinfo and winbindd were written by Tim Potter.

       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.
