Please help, I am having a problem with a Samba server I have attempted to move to a new Redhat 9 box (it was on Redhat 9 before). Here's the what I did: 1) I transferred the follwing files & dirs to the fresh RedHat box : /etc/passwd /etc/shadow /etc/group /etc/gshadow /etc/samba/* (the whole dir) /var/cache/samba/* (the whole dir) 2) I stopped SMB services on the old box 3) I started SMB services on the new box 4) I changed its dynamic IP address to static. 5) I stopped the IP tables service I can locate the domain controller from the client, but get an error saying "Cannot locate the passdb database". Is this a SID issue? Is there any way to get around that (copy over the SID database)? Any help you may be able to offer would be most appreciated.
