samba - Dec 2011 - Migrate Users from existing Samba4 Domain?

I've been using one Samba4 server based on a Fedora14 distro, but because
of my continuing issues with Bind 9.7 and dynamic DNS updates, I'm trying
to move to a Fedora 16 base, which includes Bind 9.8 by default (not to
mention a bucketload of other updates).

My question: What is the best way to pull the current domain data from the
first server to the second one?  In particular, I'm looking at users,
groups and computer accounts.

Hi,

Considering the default (source distribution) paths you would need to
copy /usr/local/samba/etc, /usr/local/samba/private and
/usr/local/samba/var dirs to your new server.
