[Samba] winbind filling up log with "Possible deadlock: Trying to lookup SID xxx with passdb backend"

[Andre Fonseca de Oliveira]

Hello,

I have samba 3.3.8 installed on CentOS 5.5 on a production server.

Winbind is filling up the logs with these messages:

[2010/12/06 10:43:28,  0] winbindd/winbindd_passdb.c:sid_to_name(159)
   Possible deadlock: Trying to lookup SID

We have been having problems when activating winbind daemon.

Could this error message be causing trouble?

Attached is smb.conf globals section (shares removed).

Thanks in advance
