I have a Samba PDC in a one way trust relationship with a Windows Server 2003 DC such that Samba is the Trusting Domain.
With Samba 3.0.23d I always used to leave winbindd running during a restart of smbd/nmbd. With 3.0.25, I have found that the domain "breaks" if I do this. Denote the Samba domain by SAMBA and the (trusted) Windows domain WINDOWS. When the domain "breaks", WINDOWS users, logged into a SAMBA workstation, receive the following when attempting to access a share on a Windows member server: "A device attached to the system is not functioning" or they are otherwise prompted for credentials when they shouldn't be (due to single sign on). Note that some users can connect once the domain "breaks" - but it seems to be quite intermittent. (Possibly because one/some of the winbindd processes become corrupted by the smbd/nmbd restart ?) If I kill all winbind processes and restart all samba daemons at the same time (i.e. smbd, nmbd and winbindd) then the problem is cleared.
