Remove Domain prefix UserID and GroupID

At my company, we have Active Directory running, with multiple Linux servers connected via WinBind.

However, on all of our Linux servers, the UserID and GroupID both appear with the "DOMAIN\" prefix, before the UserID and GroupID.

Example:

DOM\user1 DOM\group1

I researched this, and it appears as if the following command "should" remove the prefix:

authconfig –enablewinbindusedefaultdomain –update

The command runs successfully, and the service is restarted.

However, the domain prefix is still there!

Am I doing something wrong?

Is there something else I can try?

Remember, I simply want to remove the domain prefix from all UserID and GroupID entries.

Thanks in advance, and have a great evening.

Is anyone from the CentOS community monitoring these forums?
