I have a bug in the winbind package,
Version: 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3squeeze4
winbindd is not responding to a ping
# smbcontrol winbindd ping
Can't find pid for destination 'winbindd'
Workaround for users who wish to play the winbind game on squeeze:
# cd /var/run/samba
# ls *pid
nmbd.pid smbd.pid winbindd-winbindd.conf.pid
There is no winbindd.pid :-( , but a winbindd-winbindd.conf.pid
To workaround this bug, until the package is fixed, edit
/etc/init.d/winbind and put these three lines in "start)" just after
"start-stop-daemon ..."
cd $PIDDIR
ln -s winbindd-winbindd.conf.pid winbindd.pid
cd -
restart winbind and all is fine
# smbcontrol winbindd ping
PONG from pid 5363
