Hello, I'm currently installing a samba server in an existing WIN2K domain. (no active dir ... YET !) to get the user names, i use the winbind deamon. It seems the deamon hangs or stops working after some time. anyone got an idea on how to trace what is happening ? this really is a *huge* domain over here, so that might be a problem as well. also when i've configured the winbind setting in /etc/nsswitch.conf a login to the linux takes for ages or not able to login at all. the 'for ages' i can live with ... with the 'no login at all' i can't. the machine is only supposed to be samba server (ie users should not login to linux) i'm using samba 2.2.3a - SuSE Linux 7.0 on a s390 any help is appreciated. Thanx guys, Marc ********************************************************************************************** The information contained in this message or any of its attachments may be confidential and is intended for the exclusive use of the addressee(s).

This winbind dying thing has been fixed in 2.2.4 but you'll have to use the CVS until it is offically released (next week ?). As far as I know there is a still a moderate memory leak in it so I just stop and start it each morning. I have a second server which is running 2.2.3a and use a cron script which does a 'getent passwd' every minute and reloads winbind if it has failed. Reloads about six times a day typically.

Jeremy, My CVS is from April 1st and there is definitely a slow leak there. Over a five day period the size progresses from 2000K to 6000K. I'll get the latest CVS and try it again to be sure it is still an issue.

If so I need to track this down... How are you reproducing it ? Jeremy.
