Are corrupted tdbs that result from abnormal program termination not considered bugs by the Samba team? If so, I guess I need to reconsider the question of whether Debian should be providing automated backups of those .tdb files that are used for storing persistent program state (group_mapping.tdb, secrets.tdb,...). If it's just a matter of "yes, there's a bug, but having the file won't help us find it", I can understand that. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
