winbind / nss_winbind with Solaris with large amout of uses/groups
hi all ! I have compiled Samba 2.2.2 for Solaris 7 ( Solaris 8 also ) but found out that the "nss_winbind" support is available in source-code, but not after compilation. The neccessary entries in the Makefile after "configre" are missing !! Why ? I have got it to run and it works fine with a small amout of groups. But deploying this samba/winbind version to a Windows network with more than 3000 user and more than 200 groups gives following result: "getent passwd" works fin, also adding "winbind" to /etc/nsswitch.conf and looking through the windows-users owned files is ok ! "getent group" takes about 20 sek, than the first group "Domain Admins" is printed out, but NO OTHER groups/information is seen. ( no other 199 groups are listed) I have notices that the next group will be "Domain User" with this 3000 Users ! I have noticed also that there are performance considurations/discussions with/about winbind. ( bringing winbind to Debug Level 4 or above shows a huge amout of "rpc_parsing" ... ) Do you have any idea to bring this under control (, Tim ) ? Thank you for every help Martin

Must not have been carried over into the 2.2.2 tree..You might want to look at the HEAD branch and get those changes over. Cheers, Shirish
