samba - Nov 2009 - Samba 3.4.2 Winbind problem IDMAP GID range full

Hello all,

after migration from 3.0.26a to 3.4.2 we get lots of the following messages in
our winbind-idmap logfile. Has anybody seen this before?

I get these same sort of errors repeated in my log files. They are present
when I start samba and everything seems to work fine. However, after some
long period of time, I won't be able to connect to the samba shares from a
client. If I restart samba (/etc/init.d/samba restart), these errors are
entered again at that time but I will then be able to connect. I haven't
been able to find many answers yet...
