I have Samba 2.2.2 running on a Redhat 7.2 Intel machine. When winbindd is running the machine slows to a crawl for both local and remote users. If I kill winbindd, and make appropriate changes to the config files (user security, etc.), then the machine works great. Excerpts of config files are below. I am running on a large network with 142 workgroups and domains. Another problem that I have is that I can't see users in trusted domains. I tried "wbinfo -n domain+user" and got a message that the domain could not be found. "wbinfo -m" does list the trusted domains.

Michael, There is a nasty memory leak in winbind in 2.2.2 - does the machine slow after a bit of use ? Could be the memory leak. Do a ps auxw | grep winbindd to and the fourth column will give you a % of memory used. Try doing a 'getent group' and see what that gives you. I am pretty sure it will be similar to the wbinfo output but it is a little more comprehensive.

Noel, The machine does slow over time. Memory usage started at 0.3% and when I killed the process memory usage was up to 10%. What can I do? 'getent group' did not show all users in all trusted domains. I saw users in the domain the machine is in and the local trusted domain. I did not see any users from off site trusted domains. v/r, Michael -----Original Message----- From: Noel Kelly [mailto:nkelly@tarsus.co.uk] Sent: Friday, January 11, 2002 12:28 PM To: 'Raider, Michael A'; samba@lists.samba.org Subject: RE: winbindd slows my machine Michael, There is a nasty memory leak in winbind in 2.2.2 - does the machine slow after a bit of use ?

Michael, The memory leak has been fixed in 2.2.3 but it has not been released yet. I have been running it this week and had a few problems with winbind crashing so I've move back to the 2.2.2 version for a while. I get around the memory leak by running an awk script every five minutes or so and when it hits a certain level I restart it. You only have to restart winbind so the users don't notice a thing. Let me know if you want the script and I can post it for you. Not sure about the lack of users from trusted domains. If wbinfo -m give you the list then it should be working.
