[Samba] samba 3.0.0 winbind starting problems.

[Lombardo Federico]

I've a little problem starting winbindd.
using It on a redhat 9 linux, compiled from source.

I've configured nsswitch.conf with winbind and kerberos. Naturally joined my
ADS realm with the following command: net ads join -U administrator
successfully.


now the problem is that smbd and nmbd work correclty but I can't start
winbindd due the following error and I can't manage why, from the
log.winbindd:

[2003/10/15 10:54:24, 2] lib/interface.c:add_interface(79)

[2003/10/15 10:54:24, 0] nsswitch/winbindd_util.c:winbindd_param_init(446)

Naturally my smb.conf is:

[global]
encrypt passwords = Yes
workgroup = MYREALM.IT
server string = norad
security = ads
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
password server = MASTER BDC
realm = MYREALM.IT
passdb backend = tdbsam
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
local master = no
wins server = 192.168.5.1 192.168.0.1
wins proxy = yes
dns proxy = yes
[public]
comment = nora-d ? chi e` nora-d ?
writeable = yes
public = yes
browseable = yes
path = /home/samba
read only = No
create mask = 0777
directory mask = 0777
guest ok = No
;*********** winbindd **********
winbind separator = \
winbind cache time = 10
template homedir = /home/%D/%U
template shell = /bin/bash
winbind uid = 10000-20000
winbind gid = 10000-20000
winbind enum users = yes
winbind enum groups = yes
winbind use default domain = yes



It is quite stupid ok ?

when I start winbindd with the following option I receive:

winbindd version 3.0.0 started.
