[Bug 1006867] [NEW] winbind doesn't authenticate without a restart

[piviul]

Public bug reported:

ubuntu 12.04
winbind 3.6.3

I'm trying to use winbind as authenticator in a samba (v 3.5.10) domain.
At logon winbind doesn't authenticate if I don't restart the daemon.

To workaroubd the bug I've insert in /etc/network/if-up.d the following
file:

$ cat /etc/network/if-up.d/winbind 
#!/bin/sh
# Patch CSA: Authentication doesn't work if winbind is not restarted

# Don't bother to do anything for lo.
if [ "$IFACE" = lo ]; then
	exit 0
fi

# Only run from ifup.
if [ "$MODE" != start ]; then
	exit 0
fi

# Samba only cares about inet and inet6. Get thee gone, strange people
# still using ipx.
case $ADDRFAM in
	inet|inet6|NetworkManager)
		;;
	*)
		exit 0
		;;
esac

# modified by me
invoke-rc.d winbind restart >/dev/null

exit 0

But I've found that sometimes this workaround is not enought, so I have add to /etc/rc.local the command 
service winbind restart

Using both the patches above I've found no more problems using
pam_winbind.

Have a great day
