	<title>DESCRIPTION</title>

	<para>This tool is part of the <citerefentry><refentrytitle>Samba</refentrytitle>
	<manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> suite.</para>
	
	<para>The <command>wbinfo</command> program queries and returns information 
	created and used by the <citerefentry><refentrytitle>winbindd</refentrytitle>
	<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> daemon. </para>

	<para>The <citerefentry><refentrytitle>winbindd</refentrytitle>
	<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> daemon must be configured 
	and running for the <command>wbinfo</command> program to be able 
	to return information.</para>
