Greetings,
something to add.
Had one of the Solaris 9 machines just stop working. I stopped samba
and restarted it, found the following in smblog.smbd
[2012/10/22 11:37:00.299787, 0] libads/sasl.c:823(ads_sasl_spnego_bind)
kinit succeeded but ads_sasl_spnego_krb5_bind failed: Invalid credentials
I removed the machine from Active Directory and immediately re-added it
- I did NOT run kinit to get new credentials. started Samba and the
machine works fine...for now.

Greetings,
I have an elderly installation of Samba 3.5.8 running on 10 Sparc
servers (and 3.5.12 on Solaris 9 servers with the same issue) set up as
Active Directory member servers. Since we've laid-off everyone else
around here I have not had the opportunity to update the Samba
installation - and have not needed to as it has been very solid.
Suddenly last Friday the Samba servers started having authentication
problems for the active directory users. Users were unable to map
drives, looking at files on the server I was seeing UID numbers rather
that the user's login ID for the files. Stopping and restarting Samba
did not help.
I took the machines out of Active Directory, and then re-added them -
which they did without a problem. After restarting Samba all was well,
for awhile.
This morning some folks that had left themselves looked in over the
weekend were okay, but others could not map their drives. interactive
logins for AD users did not work. I again left and rejoined the AD
domain and all was well for a bit, then I had to repeat the cycle.
I do not maintain or have access to the Active Directory servers or
configuration. The central IT people claim that they have not made any
changes to the AD servers...but they don't always tell me the whole truth.
I am building Samba 3.5.18 right now in the hope that it will make a
difference.
I've never had a problem like this since first "playing" with Samba and
Active directory more than 5 years ago - and certainly no issue like
this since putting it into production.
