from my original post, I want to strike that there is a core file. Since then I have looked for a core file when the problem happens, and it is not there. So don't waste time debugging the attached core file.
In regards to errr's note above, maybe why it is quick for him/her to fix, is that they are not using ActiveDirectory/LDAP and I am, and there is some time out period, and # of retries that "something" tries to do, hence why it takes about 2 1/2 minutes (5 tries of 30 second wait times each, maybe?) for me to get any command to complete. Restarting winbindd, does not always work (possibly never works). Well it may seem that it works, but there are still old winbindd processes still hanging around. Hence why my protocol is to `kill -9` the windbindd processes first. Then, restarting winbind via: `sudo /etc/init.d/winbind restart` Same as errr's comment above, that there is nothing in the log.winbindd file, except: [2010/11/03 16:25:25, 0] winbindd/winbindd.c:1252(main) winbindd version 3.4.7 started.
