[Bug 1078699] Re: winbind won't start at boot

[Diego Zuccato]

I don't think so, but might be (hard to tell, when speaking of race conditions).
In 1083407 winbindd is hung, while in this case it exits. And the machines where I experienced that are actually quite slow.

Title:
  winbind won't start at boot

Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Winbind, by default, gets started too early (S20), resulting in daemon termination and impossible login w/ users from AD.
  If I connect as a local admin and restart winbind service, all goes well.

  3) expected # service winbind status
   * winbind is running
  4) getting # service winbind status
   * winbind is not running

  I tried to change S20winbind to S80winbind in /etc/rc*.d but seems it still gets started too early.
  An ugly workaround is starting it from rc.local, delaying for a minute or so... but it's really too ugly!
