[Bug 667269] Re: winbind crashes

[gmoore777]

Can we get some traction on this bug?

This problem still consistently occurs on at least 5 machines per week out of our 80 machines.
Or throw me some ideas to either narrow down the problem further or work-arounds.

I still feel that whatever winbind does to keep itself busy while being idle is causing it to go into this unresponsive state.
Is it pinging our Active Directory server every X minutes and amassing a queue of awaiting responses back?
Is it pinging DNS servers every X minutes, etc. 
It must be doing something, other than just merely authenticating
a user when they log in. I think these background tasks is the core of the problem.
I also can't believe no one is reporting this, unless we are the only establishment using ActiveDirectory on Ubuntu.
Help, please.
