hi,

sorry to bother you again but i get lots of errors like

[2005/02/01 17:30:27, 4] nsswitch/winbindd_acct.c:wb_getpwuid(414)
   wb_getpwuid: failed to locate uid == 10098
[2005/02/01 17:30:27, 3] lib/charcnv.c:convert_string_allocate(576)
   convert_string_allocate: Conversion error: Illegal multibyte sequence(àÑ)

"(àÑ)" seems to be an UTF-character
uid is always different, e.g. even 10000 for "administrator"

software:
samba-3.0.10-0.1
samba-python-3.0.10-0.1
samba-winbind-3.0.10-0.1
samba-doc-3.0.9-2.1.5
samba-client-3.0.10-0.1
samba-pdb-3.0.10-0.1
samba-vscan-0.3.5-11.7.6

all *.tdb were already deleted to avoid a corrupt cache
winbind seems to work properly but i want to avoid these messages on a 
productive server

thanks in advance
