Re: Re: Again with winbindd_privileged, sometimes "Ensure permissions on /var/db/samba/winbindd_privileged are set correctly"

Going in depth I found in man winbindd following:

       $LOCKDIR/winbindd_privileged/pipe
           The UNIX pipe over which 'privileged' clients communicate with the
           winbindd program. For security reasons, access to some winbindd
           functions - like those needed by the ntlm_auth utility - is
           restricted. By default, only users in the 'root' group will get
           this access, however the administrator may change the group
           permissions on $LOCKDIR/winbindd_privileged to allow programs like
           'squid' to use ntlm_auth. Note that the winbind client will only
           attempt to connect to the winbindd daemon if both the
           $LOCKDIR/winbindd_privileged directory and
           $LOCKDIR/winbindd_privileged/pipe file are owned by root.

And that's true. I need to change group to squid to
winbindd_privileged  AND winbindd_privileged/pipe.
Trying to figure out on to how to ask winbind to make it's pipe with
another group like winbind_priv... winbind makes it root:wheel by
default.
