The Samba team's opinion of it notwithstanding, you should be aware that by default it provides both a positive and a negative cache. That is, it remembers lookup *failures* so as to (attempt to) improve performance on failing lookups as well. There may also be specific unfortunate interactions with winbind, but I couldn't tell you what. John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
