NAME
wbinfo - Query information from winbind daemon
SYNOPSIS
wbinfo [-a user%password] [-c username] [-C groupname] [--domain domain]
[-I ip] [-s sid] [-u] [-U uid] [-g] [--get-auth-user] [-G gid] [-m]
[-n name] [-N netbios-name] [-o user:group] [-O user:group] [-p]
[-r user] [--set-auth-user user%password] [--sequence] [-S sid] [-t]
[-x username] [-X groupname] [-Y sid]
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 pro-
gram to be able to return information.
OPTIONS
-a username%password
Attempt to authenticate a user via winbindd. This checks both authen-
ticaion methods and reports its results.
-c user
Create a local winbind user.
-C group
Create a local winbindd group.
--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.
-g 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 '-A'. Only
available for root.
-G gid
Try to convert a UNIX group id to a Windows NT SID. If the gid speci-
fied does not refer to one within the idmap gid range then the opera-
tion will fail.
-I 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.
-m 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
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 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 parame-
ter.
-o user:group
Add a winbindd local group as a secondary group for the specified win-
bindd local user.
-O user:group
Remove a winbindd local group as a secondary group for the specified
winbindd local user.
-p Check whether winbindd is still alive. Prints out either 'succeeded'
or 'failed'.
-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.
-s sid
Use -s to resolve a SID to a name. This is the inverse of the -n op-
tion above. SIDs must be specified as ASCII strings in the traditional
Microsoft format. For example,
S-1-5-21-1455342024-3071081365-2475485837-500.
--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 compati-
able with Windows 2000 servers only).
--sequence
Show sequence numbers of all known domains
-S 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 Verify that the workstation trust account created when the Samba
server is added to the Windows NT domain is working.
-u 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) .
-U uid
Try to convert a UNIX user id to a Windows NT SID. If the uid speci-
fied does not refer to one within the idmap uid range then the opera-
tion will fail.
-x user
Delete an existing local winbind user.
-X group
Delete an existing local winbindd group.
-Y 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 opera-
tion 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 pro-
ject 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.
