Bug Description
Binary package hint: samba
Hello,
Since I migrated from Hardy to Intrepid I cannot connect with SAMBA to My freecom Network drive.
(uname -a => Linux Ubuntu-lx-dell 2.6.27-10-generic #1 SMP Fri Nov 21 12:00:22 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux)
I can use the embeded FTP server but it is not as functionnal.
I noticed that I can connect to a TRUE smb server (Igot a PC under Windows XP Pro) but it crashes with my FREECOM Network Drive.
I looked into Samba logs and I found this in /var/log/
[2008/12/02 19:13:40, 1] winbindd/

I'm not sure I understand...
You're trying to connect from an Intrepid client to a network share on a Freecom NAS.
The logs you're showing seem to come from a Samba/Winbind *server*. Are those logs from the Freecom NAS or from the Ubuntu client ? If the logs come from the Ubuntu client, why are you running a winbind server on it ?
Could you give me the output of the following command:
dpkg-query -W -f '${Status} ${Source} ${Package} ${Version}\n' | grep samba
If winbind appears installed and there is no reason why you run a winbind server on your client (if you don't know what it is, you probably don't need it), try "sudo apt-get remove winbind" and see if you still get these errors in your log. That doesn't mean your problem will be solved, but maybe we can remove the error message from the equation.
Thanks in advance
