What's the basis for claiming that there's a corruption problem? I haven't seen tdb corruption in samba for many years. The backtrace in this bug isn't a corruption issue at all; the get_global_sam_sid() call panics if called by a process that can't create or read /var/lib/samba/secrets.tdb. The trick is that libpam-smbpass isn't supposed to call get_global_sam_sid() - so something has changed here. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
