[Samba] Samba 4.9.3 and the "10 hour problem"

Tried a Samba 4.9.3 with the patch applied and it still froze up on us at 17:00… So - still no go.

However, one thing that I came to think about was that the test system where I ran the “smbclient” (the monitoring server, a Linux virtual machine) runs a prepackage Samba 4.8.3. Perhaps both server _and_ client side needs this fix?

At 17:03 this is what I saw:
> peter86 at filifjonkan tmp]$ smbclient -m SMB3 -k //filur05/peter86
> session setup failed: NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT

After I ran a “pkill winbindd” on that server (filur05) I could connect again (even though I got one “hanging” idmap-child-winbind, the rest was gone though):

Note that I didn’t restart the winbindd daemons until after I had got that smbclient session running… Perhaps that worked because I used Kerberos authentication though.

Anyway, I got a forced core dump from the “hanging idmap-child” Winbindd and a stack trace on it shows:

I wonder if it for some reason ignores SIGTERM. Hmm… Anyway, since ’smbd’ let me in when I had killed the rest of the Winbindd demons then this hanging "idmap-child” probably isn’t the problem anyway...
