Bug Description

Binary package hint: samba

While testing offline logins for laptop users I noticed that restarting winbind (when for instance rebooting the machine) makes offline logins no longer work. This is fixed upstream in 3.5.6 and the 3.4-test branch:

Please pull the patch for lucid-updates.

Looks like natty has 3.5.6, so it's fixed there.

Actually, even with the natty version backported to lucid offline login still doesn't work after a reboot ('getent passwd $uid' is enough to show that the cache doesn't work, and I get a PAM_USER_UNKNOWN from pam_winbind).
