Samba-folk: We have a site with SAMBA_3_0 where it takes 12-15 minutes to initialize winbindd's cache (locks/winbindd_cache.tdb) every time winbindd restarts. While this is going on, users can't authenticate. (~12,000 users and 9,000 groups using ADS. Same results with or without -B.)
My question is: do we really need to re-init the winbindd cache every time it starts? It seems like the sequence number is a pretty effective way to manage aging the cache. I hacked it where it doesn't truncate the cache at startup and it seems to work very well. What am I missing? Thanks, Ken Cross Network Storage Solutions
