This parameter allows an admin to define the character used when listing a username of the form of DOMAIN \user. This parameter is only applicable when using the pam_winbind.so and nss_winbind.so modules for UNIX services.
Please note that setting this parameter to + causes problems with group membership at least on glibc systems, as the character + is used as a special character for NIS in /etc/group.
Example: +
Registry Hive | HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE |
Registry Path | Software\Policies\Samba\smb_conf\winbind separator |
Value Name | winbind separator |
Value Type | REG_SZ |
Default Value | \ |
