Bug Description
Binary package hint: samba
I encountered this bug on a hardy domain controller using winbind to fetch user/group informations from another NT domain (the Samba domain trusts the NT domain). Calling getent group just crashes winbindd, as seen in the log attached.
TEST CASE:
1. Install samba and winbind 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.7 from hardy-updates.
2. Configure samba as an NT4 domain controller by setting 'domain logons = yes' in /etc/samba/
3. Restart samba and winbind with sudo /etc/init.d/winbind restart; sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
4. Set up a domain trust to another NT4 domain (Windows NT, or a second Samba instance) using the instructions at http://
5. edit /etc/nsswitch.conf to list 'group: compat winbind'
6. run 'getent group' and verify that the winbind service has stopped.
7. upgrade samba and winbind to version 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.8 in hardy-proposed.
8. run 'getent group' again to verify that the winbind service no longer crashes.

Seems a good candidate for an Hardy SRU. Please prepare a debdiff.
