I am looking to upgrade my Samba server to Samba 3.5.x from Samba 3.0.20 and openldap from 2.2.13 to 2.3.43. Is there anyway to do this and still keep my current domain intact? The interest in upgrading is so that we can suppport Win 7 systems.

Do you have more than 1 ldap server? I highly recommend that. John

I may have gotten confused when reading something in the upgrade from 3.0.x to the 3.0.23 version in the documentation. (old documentation)
I just did that from an older sidux to centos5.5. It worked on the fly. Just grep the old domain sid and give it to your new samba . Export the old ldap database and import it to the new ldap. thats all On Tue, 19 Oct 2010 16:33:06 -0400, John Drescher <drescherjm at gmail.com> wrote:>> I am looking to upgrade my Samba server to Samba 3.5.x from Samba3.0.20>> and >> openldap from 2.2.13 to 2.3.43. >> Is there anyway to do this and still keep my current domain intact? >> The interest in upgrading is so that we can suppport Win 7 systems. >> > > Of course you can keep your current domain intact. > > Do you have more than 1 ldap server?
