Hi!

With current master 5701880655c8a82b6 I'm getting the following
process hierarchy (omitting the duplicate children):

24963 ?        Ss     0:00 bin/samba
24964 ?        S      0:00  \_ bin/samba
24969 ?        S      0:00 bin/samba
24971 ?        Ss     0:00  \_ /root/samba/bin/smbd -D --option=server role check:inhibit=yes --foreground
24991 ?        S      0:00      \_ /root/samba/bin/smbd -D --option=server role check:inhibit=yes --foreground
24979 ?        S      0:00 bin/samba
24981 ?        Ss     0:00  \_ /root/samba/bin/winbindd -D --option=server role check:inhibit=yes --foreground
24990 ?        S      0:00      \_ /root/samba/bin/winbindd -D --option=server role check:inhibit=yes --foreground

I think I remember that in the past this was all located under one
"samba" process, now the winbind and smbd parents are themselves
children of init. I could stop the DC with a single kill, now it's
three.

Just curious: Why was this changed?

Thanks,

Volker
