+              will traverse when flattening nested group memberships

+             <smbconfoption name="winbind nested groups"/> option
+              which implements the Windows NT4 model of local group 
+             nesting.  The &quot;winbind expand groups&quot;
+              parameter specifically applies to the membership of 
+             domain groups.</para>

+        <para>Be aware that a high value for this parameter can
+        result in system slowdown as the main parent winbindd daemon
+        must perform the group unrolling and will be unable to answer
+        incoming NSS or authentication requests during this time.</para>
