Hello, I've recently created a new server (new P4) and installed samba. (Debian sarge with Samba 3.0.10) I've re-installed samba from scratch. I've copied over the old smb.conf and smbpasswd file, copied over /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow files too. (old server (P III) was the same, Debian sarge with 3.0.10) With the new server, the xp machines I have, won't login to the domain. The error message is as if the password is wrong. I can't see any info in the log.smbd or log.nmbd. If I re-add the xp machine back to the domain, then all will work again, but I'm wondering if there are some files from my old server that I can bring over that will allow the XP machines to login. I dont' want to have to re-add over 100 XP machines back to the domain. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks!

You neglected to say what previous version was... this may be relevant... http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2005-March/102412.html of course - logs are your friend... loglevel 10 (or at least 3) should tell you what the problem is.

Where is the SID? When I added the xp machines to my first server, I did the following: # useradd xp001$ # smpasswd -am xp001$ I then went to the xp001 machine and joined it to my domain. Since, I copied my /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow and /etc/samba/smbpasswd files over to my new server, I figured the xp machines would login again. How do I set the old SID? Thanks, Mike
