Okidokey Heres the story We currently have an NT4 Domain with 50+ machines connected to it, we have one NT4 PDC and two NT4 BDC's. We Currently have three redhat 7.3 servers that offer up our file shares using Samba 2.2.x As opposed to "upgrading" to windows 2000 we want to see if we can migrate across to a Samba controlled domain. Now then I currently have a test machine that is running samba 3.0 b3 I have managed to copy the sid and ensured that it is the same as the NT4 PDC. (using the net rpc getsid and checking with rpcclient (on nt4) and net getlocalsid (on the samba box)) I have migrated the user data (passwords/usernames) using the net rpc vampire (I love that command ;c)) I have checked that the users have been migrated with pdbedit -L and all users are there. I have migrated groups happy as larry (net groupmap list) yaddayadda and checked that they exist pdbedit -Lv However at no point have I come across the method to migrate the real problem which are these evil machine trust accounts!!! What have I missed? How do I get them? help! My boss by's the team dinner If Ipull this move off without a hitch and you know how hard it is to get a boss to do that!!!!! (Note I'm still in the "Is this even possible?" phase of the project) Cheers in advance! Matt D.
