Package: winbind
Version: 3.0.24-6
I have a 2 very strange problems with winbind, and I think they are
related that's why file only one bug report. The first issue is that
when my machine boots, right after boot 'wbinfo -D {mydomain}' shows:
Name : PHYSICS
Alt_Name : Physics.xxxxxxxxxxxx
SID : S-1-5-21-1818682373-3371831198-3922779086
Active Directory : No
Native : No
Primary : Yes
Sequence : -1
Although winbind works, it doesn't make sense as the machine is
connected to a Windows2003 ADS Server. But the strange thing is that
when I ie. issue '/etc/init.d/winbind restart' it shows:
Name : PHYSICS
Alt_Name : Physics.xxxxxxxxxxxx
SID : S-1-5-21-1818682373-3371831198-3922779086
Active Directory : Yes
Native : Yes
Primary : Yes
Sequence : -1
Note that both "Active Directory" and "Native" now say Yes (as expected).
Another problem I experience (and I think it's related to the above
issue) is that once in a while winbind stops responding, obviously
causing users/groups not be resolved from the Windows2003 domain.
'wbinfo -p' then shows:
Ping to winbindd failed on fd -1
could not ping winbindd!
Although winbind is still running (ps -ef |grep winbind):
root 3730 1 0 19:50 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/winbindd
root 3731 3730 0 19:50 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/winbindd
Note that I haven't found a way (yet) to reproduce this problem, so it's
quite hard to debug. The latter issue is (of course) the real show
stopper as at that point my users are no longer able to access the
machine until I issue another /etc/init.d/winbind restart.
