[Samba] Samba AD - Issue with winbindd: Could not write result

Tue Sep 1 14:33:51 UTC 2015

Hi Rowland, thanks for your response. 

Both samba is self compiled . 

DC 1: 
[root at wdc samba]# uname -a 
Linux wdc 2.6.32-504.23.4.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 9 20:57:37 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux 

[root at wdc samba]# cat /etc/redhat-release 
CentOS release 6.6 (Final) 

[root at wdc samba]# cat /etc/resolv.conf 
search DOMAIN 
nameserver 172.16.5.22 
nameserver 172.16.5.1 
nameserver 8.8.8.8 

[root at wdc samba]# samba -V 
Version 4.2.3 

[root at wdc samba]# cat /etc/krb5.conf 
[libdefaults] 
default_realm = DOMAIN.COM 
dns_lookup_realm = false 
dns_lookup_kdc = true 

DC 2: 
[root at bcd samba]# uname -a 
Linux bcd.senffnet 2.6.32-504.3.3.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Dec 17 01:55:02 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux 

[root at bcd samba]# cat /etc/redhat-release 
CentOS release 6.6 (Final) 

[root at bcd samba]# cat /etc/resolv.conf 
search DOMAIN 
nameserver 172.16.5.1 
nameserver 172.16.5.22 
nameserver 8.8.8.8 

[root at bcd samba]# samba -V 
Version 4.2.3 

[root at bcd samba]# cat /etc/krb5.conf 
[libdefaults] 
default_realm = DOMAIN.COM 
dns_lookup_realm = false 
dns_lookup_kdc = true 

About the winbindd I got some perfomance with the following lines, and I could reproduce this in my tests, so in some manner they get processed at some time: 
> winbind use default domain = yes 
> winbind nested groups = false 
> winbind enum users = no 
> winbind enum groups = no

Hi, if you use samba4 as an AD DC all the lines you added that start 
with 'winbind' will be ignored.

No you don't, you have two DCs, all DCs are equal apart from the FSMO roles.

There doesn't seem to be anything really wrong, so can you post a bit 
more info, what OS, what version of samba, where did it come from, self 
compiled, OS packages or Sernet packages. Can you also post krb5.conf 
and resolv.conf from both DCs
