[Samba] api_pipe_bind_req: unknown auth type 9 requested.

[Andreas Guelzow]

Hi,

I have two machines opteron1 and opteron2, both amd64 that have to
authenticate users via winbind.

On opteron1 I have samba 3.2.5 (packaged by debian) and everything works
fine.

On opteron2 with samba 3.2.5 everything worked fine too. We now
"upgraded" this to the current version in debian sid, namely 3.5.8. And
a problem we previously had with some versions before 3.2.5 and some
after has arisen again:

Authentication appears to fail. On the server we see the error message:

[2011/05/18 13:27:57, 0] rpc_server/srv_pipe.c:api_pipe_bind_req(993)
  api_pipe_bind_req: unknown auth type 9 requested.

On the client thecorresonding commands were:

Our smb.conf file:
[global]
        workgroup = STUDENT
        server string = %h server
        interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8, eth1

        passdb backend = tdbsam
        passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
        passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* .
        syslog = 0
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
        max log size = 1000
        dns proxy = No
        panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
        idmap uid = 1000-20000

        template homedir = /home_samba/%D/%U
        template shell = /bin/bash

        winbind enum users = Yes
        winbind enum groups = Yes
        winbind use default domain = Yes
        invalid users = root

[homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        valid users = %S
        create mask = 0700
        directory mask = 0700
        browseable = No

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/spool/samba
        create mask = 0700
        printable = Yes
        browseable = No

[print$]
        comment = Printer Drivers
        path = /var/lib/samba/printers

In the client log files I see in /var/log/samba/log.wb-STUDENT:
[2011/05/18 13:27:57.480799,  1] rpc_client/cli_pipe.c:1046(cli_pipe_validate_current_pdu)

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
