[Samba] Samba4 python errors in /var/log/messages

[George Itee]

Hello,

I've set up a test environment with Samba 4.0.9 as AD DC and noticed these
messages in */var/log/messages* and *log.samba*

This is a clean installation, the DNS is samba's internal pointing to
google 8.8.8.8. There is only 1 client, windows 7 with RSAT tools that
accesses the server.

This error pops up *precisely* *every 5 minutes*. I did not encounter this
with Samba 4.0.7. It does not seem to affect the server in anyway until
now, but I am curios what it means and why every 5 minutes.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,

George
