CPU spinout with samba-3.0.20pre[12]

[Jason Haar]

Hi there

Under Fedora Core 2, I have had 3.0.20pre1 spin out, with a smbd process 
taking 80-90% of the system CPU. Restarting smbd clears the problem, but 
some time in the next 24 hours it's back again.

I then upgraded to 3.0.20pre2, and now winbindd is the problem - 
currently it's sitting on 85% CPU.

If I strace the running process, I see that nothing is happening - i.e. 
strace attaches, and there's no output.

I have "log level = 9" set - but don't really know what to look for to 
see where the problem is.

Can someone point me at what I need to do to provide some actually 
useful details to the esteemed Samba programmers? ;-)
