However, finger and getent give no results from the active directory, only from the local files. These programs seemingly got some incorrect information or error message from /var/lib/samba/winbindd_privileged/pipe

With nsswitch.conf configured, finger and getent request user & group information via libnss_winbind. The failures are likely due to a bug in this code path, rather than incomplete libc integration, changing summary accordingly. ...

SuSE's KDM theme doesn't support active directory authentication at all!!!!

See the following man page excerpt: winbind enum users (G) Warning Turning off user enumeration may cause some programs to behave oddly. For example, the finger program relies on having access to the full user list when searching for matching usernames.
