In this case, it looks like there may be some stack corruption, or else a gdb bug that prevents a good backtrace. The backtrace from your log file is much clearer and more useful: <snip> #3 [0xb7fb7420] #4 /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6(vsyslog+0x119) [0xb7cde679] #5 /lib/security/pam_unix.so(_log_err+0x8d) [0xb7815b2d] #6 /lib/security/pam_unix.so(pam_sm_open_session+0x109) [0xb7813519] #7 /lib/libpam.so.0(_pam_dispatch+0x27a) [0xb7d779ea] #8 /lib/libpam.so.0(pam_open_session+0x3c) [0xb7d79c7c] <snip> So for that, samba debugging symbols are irrelevant anyway given that the crash is PAM-related. What version of libpam-modules do you have on this system? I've never seen a crash like this before with the Debian PAM and Samba packages. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
