+<description>
+ <para>This parameter specifies whether the
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>winbindd</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> daemon should operate on users
+ without domain component in their username. Users without a domain
+ component are treated as is part of the winbindd server's own
+ domain. While this does not benefit Windows users, it makes SSH, FTP and
+ e-mail function in a way much closer to the way they
+ would in a native unix system.</para>
+ <para>This option should be avoided if possible. It can cause confusion
+ about responsibilities for a user or group. In many situations it is
+ not clear whether winbind or /etc/passwd should be seen as authoritative
+ for a user, likewise for groups.</para>
