samba - Apr 2007 - winbindd PID name resolution mis-behaviour with Linux (openSuse 10.1)

Hi All,

I'm running Samba quite well on my OpenSuse 10.1 PPC using samba 
3.0.22-13.27-1162-SUSE-CODE10 integrated with winbindd and idmap_rid 
support to a Windows 2003 AD. 

However, I've encountered two issues:

1. username resolution of PID UID's stay numeric, the operating system is 
not resolving the UID of the process and leaving it numric.
2. in another deployment (with exact smb.conf, however this time using a 
Windows 2000 domain), I encounter the same issue as #1, but this time, the 
operating-system is trying to resolve the UID's and taking significant 
time per process that is owned by a winbind-provided UID.

Yet, when I do a getent passwd, or getent group, everything is listed 
properly. When I list files on my filesystem owned by winbind-provided 
UID's, the names and groups resolve, everything works, except for process 
UID name resolution.

How is the operating system hooked into winbind to resolve external 
usernames?  The first scenario of the problem where names simply not 
resolving instantaneously isn't much of a problem, since I can execute 
programs like a ps -ef without having to wait, however, on my 2nd system 
when I do the same command, I have to wait about 10-15 seconds for each 
line having a PID owned by a winbind provided UID.

Any hints?  Workarounds?  It seems to apply on Suse 10, since Suse 9 works 
flawlessly.

Cheers
Kris
