I've got a RH9 box with samba 3.0.0 using winbind and pam for windows client and user authentication to a 2003 AD DC. This morning I started having problems with a few shares that then cascaded into a larger issue of being able to authenticate any client to the machine. I configured Kerberos with my realm information and have added the machine to the domain several times and have been able to read wbinfo -u and -g requests fine. My event log however has been getting this all day and regardless of what I check or change: Jun 28 17:17:21 abq-linuxserver smbd[1236]: [2004/06/28 17:17:21, 0] auth/auth_util.c:make_server_info_info3(1017) Jun 28 17:17:21 abq-linuxserver smbd[1236]: make_server_info_info3: pdb_init_sam failed!

I've forced an upgrade of samba 3 to see if it would correct any db corruption by fiat but that has had no effect. Phillip M.
