Can you send us your winbindd_cache.tdb somehow? Please be
aware that winbindd_cache.tdb might contain sensitive
information, so it would not be a good idea to upload it
somewhere. Either send it to possibly me in private or open
a support case with RH to send it to their Samba developers.

With best regards,
