Hey list. I've searched all over last year conversations and it is (kinda) still unclear about backups. samba_backup script assumes that samba4 was installed from source, not from repository. https://github.com/thctlo/samba4/tree/master/backup-script is too overfunctional for simple backup script. Really, I know how to write shell scripts, but sometimes have headaches reading them ☺ The question is: is it enough to copy /var/lib/samba directory (with samba turned off), which contains: # ls /var/lib/samba/ account_policy.tdb ntp_signd private registry.tdb share_info. tdb sysvol winbindd_cache.tdb winbindd_privileged wins.ldb And /etc/samba && /etc/krb5.conf, or it should do something else? -- With best regards, Stanislav N. aka pztrn Jabber: pztrn at pztrn.name E-Mail: pztrn at pztrn.name Blog: http://pztrn.name && http://en.pztrn.name Telegram: @pztrn Key ID: B3E1F07E
Hai, I dont think its over functional, it includes everything you need for a good AD DC backup. This is about the minimal you should backup for an AD DC. If you want to backup samba when turned off. You need at least: /etc/samba /var/lib/samba /var/cache/samba /etc/krb* Check if sysvol is included in you backup and i also suggest an extra ACL backup of sysvol. !! Dont copy the /var/lib/samba when samba is running, you will get corrupted [l-t]db files !! Read: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Back_up_and_Restoring_a_Samba_AD_DC But the script is a "set and forget" and does all of above. Im using it over a year now, so can you explain what the problem is with the backup script. And i agree, its a "hard" to read script, so why not .. Just dont read it, get it, set it and enjoy it. If it does not work, report it on the list and we can try to help out.
