Beta1 has "invented" uids/gids for users that previously existed and worked fine
in a23.  These new gids/uids obviously don't authenticate very well, and appear
to again change at a randomn interval.  Usually every day some other user loses
the ability to login to the server.  The server is running as a domain server,
serving profiles, that don't update either.  Permissions on the profile
directory/home directories have been made 777 so that when users come on with
invented uids/gids they can still get to the data.  We are down to 3 functioning
accounts now out of 24, everyone on the network logs on with one of those 3
accounts.  

Here is typical winbindd log:
