Hello, I am setting up our backup Linux server to act a BDC to our Linux PDC. In the directions that are available within the Swat Online Help... There is a section that states that the private/MACHINE.SID file must be copied over exactly as is to the Samba BDC in order for that machine to act as a Samba BDC to a Samba PDC. For the life of me, I have been unable to locate that file. I have updated by locatedb and have searched for it using a variety of strings and options... Does anyone know where that file is? Regards, Robert Adkins II IT Manager/Buyer Impel Industries, Inc. Ph. 586-254-5800 Fx. 586-254-5804
