Bug Description
in Dapper, since the latest upgrade of samba (3.0.22-1ubuntu1)
samba runs as a standalone wins server.
Suppose "ordi" is a name of a windows (or samba) computer
if nsswitch.conf has the line
hosts: files dns mdns
then "smbclient -L ordi" succeeds
but "ping ordi" fails with unknown host
if nsswitch.conf has the line
hosts: files dns mdns wins
then "ping ordi" and "smbclient -L ordi" both fail with segmentation fault
ping "www.google.fr" works.
if nsswitch.conf has the line
hosts: wins files dns mdns
then "ping ordi" and "smbclient -L ordi" both fail with segmentation fault
ping "www.google.fr" also fail with segmentation fault
before the upgrade, both were working.
I have the exact same problem.
When the winbind deamon should be started it crashes during the upstart och the machine and the same thing if I try to restart the winbind daemon after bootup. This happens both with samba installed or uninstalled. I also get a mail from /usr/share/ samba/panic- action everytime winbind is started. I have installed samba-dbg to get more output and the output is attached.
