scottgarner483 proposed the following answer:
The winbindd process is a component of the Samba suite, which
facilitates the integration and communication between Windows and
Linux/Unix systems. The exact location of the winbindd executable can
vary depending on the operating system and how Samba was installed. In
general, on Linux, you can find winbindd at /usr/sbin/winbindd or
/usr/bin/winbindd. For macOS, it is typically located at
/usr/local/samba/sbin/winbindd or /usr/local/samba/bin/winbindd. On
FreeBSD, the common paths are /usr/local/sbin/winbindd or
/usr/local/bin/winbindd. It's important to note that winbindd is not
typically used on Windows systems with Samba installed. If you're having
difficulty locating the winbindd executable, you can try using the
"which winbindd" command in the terminal or refer to your system
documentation or package manager for more specific details.
