Hi Guys, I have a samba 4.0.3 running in a CentOS 6.4 and I want to install samba 4.1 in a new CentOS 7 server. Should I use the samba-4.1 rpm provided by CentOS or download, compile and install it from samba repositories? Which is better and why? Finally, How can I migrate domain and users data files from samba 4.0.3 to 4.1 ? Thanks, Edison

Me too, works great! Ad hoc I would do the following steps in your case: 1 Setting up a test environment 2 Doing a DC backup of your 4.0.3 installation (just in case...) 3 Clone your actual CentOS 6.4 system to the test environment (this should never, never, ever connected to your production environment) 4 Update your Samba 4.0.3 test machine to the most recent 4.0.X version with sernet packages 5 Test, if everything works (Users, Groups, rfc2307 attributes, DNS,...) 6 Upgrade to most recent 4.1.x version 7 Test, if everything works (see above) 8 Do a DC backup (Have a look at Backup/Restore in the wiki) 9 Install a CentOS 7 machine 10 Install Samba 4.1.x packages from Sernet 11 Provision your domain (Have a look at Backup/Restore in the wiki) 12 Restore your DC from CentOS 6.4 (see step 8) 13 Test, if everything works 14 Have fun!

Which is better and why?It sounds like you have already been convinced, but I just wanted to add that the samba packages provided by CentOS do not support acting as a domain controller, so you must use 3rd party packages such as Sernet, or build it yourself.
Hi Sketch, There is a package called samba-dc provided by CentOS 7. It seemed to act as an Domain Controller... [root at localhost ~]# yum info samba-dc Name : samba-dc Arch : x86_64 Version : 4.1.1 Release : 38.el7_0 Size : 63 k Repo : updates/7/x86_64 Summary : Samba AD Domain Controller URL : http://www.samba.org/ License : GPLv3+ and LGPLv3+ Description : The samba-dc package provides AD Domain Controller functionality But, after looking closer: [root at localhost ~]# rpm -ql samba-dc /usr/share/doc/samba-dc-4.1.1 /usr/share/doc/samba-dc-4.1.1/README.dc [root at localhost ~]# cat /usr/share/doc/samba-dc-4.1.1/README.dc MIT Kerberos 5 Support ====================== Fedora is using MIT Kerberos implementation as its Kerberos infrastructure of choice. The Samba build in Fedora is using MIT Kerberos implementation in order to allow system-wide interoperability between both desktop and server applications running on the same machine. At the moment the Samba Active Directory Domain Controller implementation is not available with MIT Kereberos. FreeIPA and Samba Team members are currently working on Samba MIT Kerberos support as this is a requirement for a GNU/Linux distribution integration of Samba AD DC features. We have just finished migrating the file server and all client utilities to MIT Kerberos. The result of this work is available in samba-* packages in Fedora. We'll provide Samba AD DC functionality as soon as its support of MIT Kerberos KDC will be ready. In case of further questions do not hesitate to send your inquiries to samba-owner at fedoraproject.org So, you are right =) Thank you Regards, Edison ----- Mensagem original ----- De: "Sketch" <smblist at rednsx.org> Para: samba at lists.samba.org Enviadas: Ter?a-feira, 10 de mar?o de 2015 11:58:13 Assunto: Re: [Samba] Samba 4.1 on CentOS 7 On Mon, 9 Mar 2015, TI wrote:> I have a samba 4.0.3 running in a CentOS 6.4 and I want to install samba 4.1 in a new CentOS 7 server. > > Should I use the samba-4.1 rpm provided by CentOS or download, compile and install it from samba repositories?
