[Samba] 3.0.14 -> 3.0.20a: ldap errors, unable to authenticate or browse

[fire-eyes]

Hello, I was using version 3.0.14 and upgraded to 3.0.20a. I did not
change my config, however, I am seeing some serious problems now, and I
am not sure what to do about it.

I noticed there were a large number of changes between these two
versions. I looked at the changes briefly, but there are just so many.

This samba server is a domain memmber, on an ADS domain with a win 2003
enterprise server. I am able to join and leave it just fine.

I followed the directions here:
http://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba3-ByExample/unixclients.html#adssdm

I am using Gentoo linux, with kernel 2.6.13.4-grsec-20051012.

When I start samba, smbd takes well over 30 seconds to start, and the
logs show:

*** log.smbd ***
[2005/10/14 12:22:59, 0] smbd/server.c:main(806)
  smbd version 3.0.20a started.

And it just tries for a long time.

After smbd finally starts, nmbd starts, then winbindd starts.

When I try to explore \\badger , I am prompted for my username and
password, which I did not need to do in the past. I enter my username
and password, which is the same on the system the samba server is
running on, and the win dc. Which is rejected. Then I get:

[2005/10/14 12:28:21, 0] lib/util_sock.c:get_peer_addr(1222)
  getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected

And that is as far as I got. All of this worked fine with 3.0.14.

My samba config file can be found at
http://fire-eyes.org/temp/smb-1014-1.conf

So, any ideas? To me it seems to be a change between samba 3.0.14 and
3.0.20a.
