[Samba] Domain password server not available
We are running samba 3.0.7-1.3E.1in an AD domain which is running a PDC emulator. The samba servers are configured with "security = domain" and on some servers the password server is specified while on others we are using *. We very frequently see the following messages in the log files of the servers. "domain_client_validate: Domain password server not available" Typically we can count on an smbd process to panic at the same time. We've spoken to the admins of the PDC emulators and they claim that the servers are ok. Has anyone else seen this? Any ideas what would cause this? -John

[Samba] Re: Domain password server not available
We continue to see the "password server not available" messages on our
servers. I'm including a portion of one of the Samba client logs below.
Has anyone else seen anything like this?
