[Samba] winbind's libads/ldap_utils.c repeatedly says 'failed to reconnect (Timed out)'

2007-04-30 Thread Jonathan C. Detert
I'm repeatedly needing to restart winbind v3.0.22 on ubuntu server v6.10. The reason why is that it fails to get group info. The passwd info is still accessible; it just can't figure out what groups a person is in. I'm using idmap backend = ad , and winbind nss info = sfu. Looking in
