I have attached the patch from the samba bug(https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5904) it fixed the problem on my ibex x64 box but I think the upstream bug has the wrong component listed, I think it should be winbind as the component. After building I am pretty sure you just need to install the winbind*.deb package and that is all, it fixed the problem for me. Write back if I am missing anything. I would submit a package but I have no clue how to do it? To build packages: sudo apt-get install build-essential fakeroot dpkg-dev mkdir -p ~/installs/samba/ cd ~/installs/samba apt-get source samba (Note no sudo here , do want the files to be owned by root) sudo apt-get build-dep samba dpkg-source -x samba_3.2.3-1ubuntu3.3.dsc cd samba-3.2.3 patch -p1 --dry-run < samba_bug5904.patch (if it says: patching file source/nsswitch/wins.c ) patch -p1 < samba_bug5904.patch dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b sudo dpkg -i ../winbind_3.2.3-1ubuntu3.3_amd64.deb add the wins section to your /etc/nsswitch.conf sudo /etc/init.d/winbind restart sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
Make sure you restart any programs that would be using dns. Only problem I see is my browser "seems" to run slower with wins enabled, but I have no quantitative proof only qualitative. Overall I think they had a threading issue in samba that causes the crash , the patch puts a mutex in and some other things. ** Attachment added: "upstream patch from samba bug 5904" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20873967/samba_bug5904.patch -- firefox 3.0.3 crashes (no SIG) on most pages w images: 8.10beta AMD64 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286119 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
