+<samba:parameter name="winbind scan trusted domains"

+<description>
+ <para>
+ This option only takes effect when the <smbconfoption name="security"/> option is set to
+ <constant>domain</constant> or <constant>ads</constant>.
+ If it is set to yes, winbindd periodically tries to scan for new
+ trusted domains and adds them to a global list inside of winbindd.
+ The list can be extracted with <command>wbinfo --trusted-domains --verbose</command>.
+ Setting it to yes matches the behaviour of Samba 4.7 and older.</para>
+
+ <para>The construction of that global list is not reliable and often
+ incomplete in complex trust setups. In most situations the list is
+ not needed any more for winbindd to operate correctly.
+ E.g. for plain file serving via SMB using a simple idmap setup
+ with <constant>autorid</constant>, <constant>tdb</constant> or <constant>ad</constant>.
+ However some more complex setups require the list, e.g.
+ if you specify idmap backends for specific domains.
+ Some pam_winbind setups may also require the global list.</para>
+
+ <para>If you have a setup that doesn't require the global list, you should set
+ <smbconfoption name="winbind scan trusted domains">no</smbconfoption>.
