I take it back, after further testing, I'm still seeing wierd winbind/pam
behavior.  On my first test machine, all seemed well.

On another box, with *exactly* same smb.conf (that was working previously
with samba-3.0.22), things aren't so rosy:

Using
log level = 1 winbind:8

authentication/login attempts fail with these filling /var/log/messages:
# Jul 18 10:47:59 foo pam_winbind[27236]: read from socket failed!
Jul 18 10:47:59 foo pam_winbind[27236]: internal module error (retval = 3,
user = `bar1')

Hmm... and 
$ net ads ...
commands hang too... with periodic log entries saying:

Jul 18 10:48:30 foo winbindd[27214]: [2006/07/18 10:48:30, 0]
lib/util_sock.c:write_data(564)
Jul 18 10:48:30 foo winbindd[27214]:   write_data: write failure. Error =

nsswitch/winbindd_dual.c:child_read_request(49)
Jul 18 10:49:43 foo winbindd[27228]:   Got invalid request length: 0

Wierd, I'll keep looking...
