[Samba] Invalid request size nsswitch/winbindd

[Gianluca Culot]

Hello list
 
I've seen there is a discussion about this error 
 
Dec 19 10:30:00 antares winbindd[90393]: [2007/12/19 10:30:00, 0]
nsswitch/winbindd.c:request_len_recv(544)
Dec 19 10:30:00 antares winbindd[90393]:   request_len_recv: Invalid request
size received: 2084 (expected 2088)

but the suggested remedy of sttoping and starting samba granting all
winbindd processes died doesn't work for me
 
I'm running e freebsd 6 box with
samba-3.0.28,1
 
I ALWAYS portupgraded, never built custom packages or from sources.
 
a completely similar box (portupgraded in the same way and running the SAME
samba version) doesn't report this error
both samba are attached and referring to the same domain.
 
actually this error doesn't seem to bring any problem to the user and server
operations...
but it is reported VERY frequently !
 
any suggestion ?
