Andrew Tridgell 789833b44e put sid_to_name behind the winbindd backend interface
I spent quite a while trying to work out how to make this call
via ldap and failed. I then found that MS servers seem use rpc
for sid_to_name, and it works even when in native mode, I ended
up just implementing it via rpc

This extension provides a "wins" module for NSS on glibc2/Linux.  This
allows you to use a WINS entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf for hostname
resolution, allowing you to resolve netbios names via start unix
gethostbyname() calls. The end result is that you can use netbios
names as host names in unix apps.

1) run configure
2) run "make nsswitch"
3) cp nsswitch/libnss_wins.so /lib/libnss_wins.so.2
4) add a wins entry to the hosts line in /etc/nsswitch.conf
5) use it
