[Bug 303458] Re: segfault in pam_smbpass.so

[Shazburg]

Came across this issue just last night and found the cause to be less
than insidious.

Seems that after I finished editing smb.conf, the daemon reloaded the
new file automagically. This is when the trouble started.

As it turns out, my new config had a typo and was specifying a directory
that did not exist. I believe this is what was causing samba to go
tango-uniform and thus causing pam to segfault.

One boot into recovery mode and a restore to the default smb.conf later,
and all is well again. I will be editing my smb.conf under a different
name until it has passed testparm. I will report back should another
fail occur.
