winbindd slows my machine

[Noel Kelly]

Michael,

There is a nasty memory leak in winbind in 2.2.2 - does the machine slow
after a bit of use ?  Could be the memory leak.  Do a ps auxw | grep
winbindd to and the fourth column will give you a % of memory used.

Try doing a 'getent group' and see what that gives you.  I am pretty sure it
will be similar to the wbinfo output but it is a little more comprehensive.

Subject: winbindd slows my machine


I have Samba 2.2.2 running on a Redhat 7.2 Intel machine.  When winbindd is
running the machine slows to a crawl for both local and remote users.  If I
kill winbindd, and make appropriate changes to the config files (user
security, etc.), then the machine works great.  Excerpts of config files are
below.  I am running on a large network with 142 workgroups and domains.

Another problem that I have is that I can't see users in trusted domains.  I
tried "wbinfo -n domain+user" and got a message that the domain could not be
found.  "wbinfo -m" does list the trusted domains.

Thanks for your help, Michael
