I haven't been able to resolve this issue yet. I started seeing this on my server when trying to migrate to LDAP with 3.0.24. I have since grabbed 3.0.25b and built that as well, but smbd will not start. When I run it with -i I get this: [..] pop_sec_ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 0 Got nobody from pwnam_cache Got nobody from pwnam_cache sys_getgrouplist: user [nobody] push_sec_ctx(0, 0) : sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 1 push_conn_ctx(0) : conn_ctx_stack_ndx = 0 setting sec ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 1 NT user token: (NULL) UNIX token of user 0 Primary group is 0 and contains 0 supplementary groups ==============================================================INTERNAL ERROR: Signal 11 in pid 19224 (3.0.25b) Please read the Trouble-Shooting section of the Samba3-HOWTO From: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-HOWTO.pdf ==============================================================PANIC (pid 19224): internal error unable to produce a stack trace on this platform dumping core in /local/samba/var/cores/smbd Abort I am using openldap on a Solaris 9 server.
