[Samba] ERROR: string overflow in safe_strcpy

[c-ssugimoto at hitachijoho.com]

Hello All,

Our samba server rarely shows up follwing message in syslog.
When this message appears, CPU average will be pretty high.


winbindd[9585]: [2007/11/28 15:55:02, 0] lib/util_str.c:safe_strcpy_fn(659) 
winbindd[9585]:   ERROR: string overflow by 1 (256 - 255) in safe_strcpy [01092-6821

Samba server is a member server of Win2003 R2 Active Directory.
And also, winbindd works with idmap_rid option.

My smb.conf is as below.

[global]
   workgroup = MYDOMAIN
   log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
   max log size = 50
   security = ADS
   password server = ad.mydomain.com 
   encrypt passwords = yes
   socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
   dns proxy = no 
   idmap uid = 10000-50000
   idmap gid = 10000-50000
   idmap backend = idmap_rid:MYDOMAIN=10000-50000
   allow trusted domains = no
   template shell = /bin/false
   winbind use default domain = yes
   realm = MYDOMAIN.COM
   netbios name = pop
   winbind cache time = 900
   winbind separator = @
   template homedir = /home/%U
   Obey pam restrictions = yes


Does anyone have Knowledge or experienced?
Any help is appreciated,
