Could someone show me differences in both groups and users between a full NT4 LDAP schema and a full ActiveDirectory LDAP schema? Is ActiveDirectory fully retrocompatible with NT4? There are plans for supporting again an OpenLDAP backend when LDAPcon objectives will be achieved? https://ldapcon.org/2019/wp-content/events/presentations/ni_samba_backend.pdf Why an user in old NT4 schema looks like this: dn: uid=myuser,ou=People,dc=mydomain while in AD LDAP schem...

...t and how to reproduce them if I choose to... let's SUPPOSE Migrate data from /etc/passwd and /etc/group files It would be nice knowing for ex if old sambaSID and new objectSID are the same thing, because I already know (from smbldap tools) how to calculate it > > Is ActiveDirectory fully retrocompatible with NT4? > No So I guess I can't use an ldif file made for NT4 for populating an AD, right? > > > > There are plans for supporting again an OpenLDAP backend when LDAPcon objectives will be achieved? > > https://ldapcon.org/2019/wp-content/events/presentations/ni_samba_...

...g for ex if old sambaSID and new objectSID are the same thing, because I already know (from smbldap tools) how to calculate it Well, a SID is just a SID, but you do not calculate an objectSID, AD does this for you from the domain SID and the next available RID >>> Is ActiveDirectory fully retrocompatible with NT4? >> No > So I guess I can't use an ldif file made for NT4 for populating an AD, right? No, definitely not, to populate a new Samba AD domain, you would use 'samba-tool domain provision .........' >>> There are plans for supporting again an OpenLDAP backen...

...can't do that. Since it would be an import from /etc flat files it won't be just as easy as typing `samba-tool user create $user`, transferring rfc2037 NIS data (including loginShell, uidNumber, gidNumber, homeDirectory etc) will be needed as well > >>> Is ActiveDirectory fully retrocompatible with NT4? > >> No > > So I guess I can't use an ldif file made for NT4 for populating an AD, right? > No, definitely not, to populate a new Samba AD domain, you would use > 'samba-tool domain provision .........' > >>> There are plans for supporting...

...;s still useful. And thank you for providing feedback on it. ":" and "/" in Mac OS X is a odd story. HFS filesystem and Mac OS until 9 use ":" as path separator (and this is the only forbidden character on a HFS filename). When moving to Mac OS X, Apple needed retrocompatibility and so they let the HFS filesystem as it was. But OS X is a UNIX OS, so it uses "/" as path separator, and the conversion of path separator is done on the fly between the OS and the filesystem. On this rsync patch, we are talking directly with the filesystem, so you are ri...
