- winbindd will renew kerberos tickets until they expire, but it seems unable 
to refresh them before expiry.
- 
- I am using in smb.conf
+ I have the following in smb.conf:
  
  winbind refresh ticket = true
  
  and have cached_login set for pam_winbind
  
  After 7 days ( the renewal limit on AD kerberos tickets) the ticket
  expires and I lose access to my NFS home directory which uses sec=krb5
  
  I have tried to debug why this is happening and have come to the
- conclusion that there are to important variables for ticket refreshing
+ conclusion that there are two important variables for ticket refreshing
  to work (both in winbind/winbindd_cred_cache.c):
  
  ccache_list
  memory_creds_list
  
  and that the function that stores the password for later refreshing use
  is called
  
  winbindd_add_memory_creds
  
- This function though requires that the user is ccache_list before it

+ This function though requires that the user is in ccache_list before it
+ stores the password in a way it can be used by the rekinit part of the
  function krb5_ticket_refresh_handler.
  
  The problem as I see it is that winbind forks and the parent populates 
ccache_list and the child populates memory_creds_list.
  This leads to the password not being stored in a way that can be used by the 
rekinit code in krb5_ticket_refresh_handler.
  
  As a dirty hack (attached) I tried populating memory_creds_list from the
  same location as ccache_list get populated (winbindd_raw_kerberos_login
  in winbind/winbindd_pam.c).
  
  This hack "fixes" the problem.
