I originally had the password server = *
It is now net to dc1name,dc2name,dc3name,dc4name
I did a test monday where I set it to each DC, one-at-a-time and none of
them worked.
I can try one domain controller at-a-time for multiple tries and see what
happens.
How long after starting winbindd should I wait before trying the wbinfo -u
command?
I have been running a tail -f log.winbindd and waiting for it to pause.
Just so I understand...
The fact that wbinfo -t replies with secret is good says that it is able
to talk to the domain controller and should be able to request users/group
listing. Right?

Well, that's just wierd.
I haven't run into anything like this before.
in your smb.conf file, have you set
password server = *
or can you set
password server = pdcname
and then try it multiple times (with the same pdcname)
and finally get it to work?

Yes, it fails at the startup.
I've been trying various ideas, stopping and restarting winbindd, and
occasionally it works, only to break on the next try.
The last time it worked, I had started it without a debug setting. 8-b

Hi Paul,
Just want to make sure I understand:
when this fails, it fails right from startup? And WHAT do you do to get it
to finally work again?

1) We have joined the domain. Samba is running fine without winbind.
2) We have only this one copy of winbindd
3) We are using PAM_SMB without a problem.
4) ROOT# wbinfo -t
Secret is good
More ideas?
Paul

Question:
How does winbindd determine whether to do annonymous or authenticated
queries?
How does winbindd determine what user to authenticate with?
Can winbindd be forced to use a specific user/password to query the PDC?
It uses the trust account info from the secrets database. You have to join
the domain.
Problem:
winbindd seems to work intermittantly.
wbinfo -u returns Error looking up domain users
I have seen a number of reasons for this:
1. You have not joined the domain
2. There are old copies of winbindd or smbd/nmbd from a different domain
3. There is no connectivity to the DC
