[Samba] NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED with winbindd authentication

[Sridhar Venkatakrishnan]

Hi, 

We're running a print server having the following specifications:

 Samba 3.0.11 
 Suse 9.1 
 Kernel 2.6.5-7.108 kernel

A few days back none of the users were able to log onto the print
server. The debug 10 logs show the following lines:

[2005/03/29 11:21:05, 5] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(271)
  check_ntlm_password: winbind authentication for user [**user-name**]
FAILED with error NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

Does anyone have any ideas about why winbindd would throw up an ACCESS_DENIED?

Thanks
Sridhar
