Description Andreas Schneider 2011-12-05 14:06:03 UTC
Description of problem:

If you update from a former Samba version to 3.6 the complete winbind cache including cached credentials is deleted cause of a database change.

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
* Install Samba 3.5
* Delete the winbindd_cache.tdb
* Start winbind
* Do some request like wbinfo -u/-g
* Shut down winbind
* Install Samba 3.6
* Start it

You will see from the logs that the cache validation fail and the tdb gets renamed to winbindd_cache.tdb.corrupt.
