[Samba] invalid permissions on socket directory/var/lib/samba/winbindd_privileged

[Ross McInnes]

 Hi,

Ironically enough I also had this same issue this morning, ive traced it
back to a howto get squid and samba authenticating off a windows PDC. In the
faq it tells you to chown root:squid and chmod 770

Set it back to 750, winbindd would now start and squid was quite happy to
authenticate still.

Cheers

Ross

This (0755) is incorrect.  It must be (0750).

I think this may be incorrect in the book.
