...g on a streaming radio server that will be streaming randomized archive shows 90% of the time and then live shows 10% of the time. The solution I came up with was to have /main the archive mountpoint and have a /live for the live shows. What we want to do is use the functionality of icecast's moveusers.xsl to move them to the live at the specified time and have /live's fallback to be /main to minimize dead air. We've overcome the the issue with having users come on to /main after the initial moveuser by just having a script to move everyone over on a set interval during the live shows....

Hi, I am trying to plan a migration of approximately 160 PC's from a workgroup environment to using Samba (3.0.14a) as a PDC (on AIX 4.3, to be 5.3 in near future). They will NOT be using roaming profiles, as this is not appropriate for the client. Joining the machine to the domain, logging in works, everything's cool. These computers were all in a workgroup previously and had a

Ok, I got the W2K3 resource kit tool to move my local profile to my domain profile (moveuser.exe). Didn't really work that cleanly. Even though I used the /k (keep the local account), it didn't really. It seemed to change the permissions on MOST of the files. It didn't really move the files either. It's just pointed my profile (or parts of it) to the existing folder. Can't

Hi there. [I just asked this over the irc channel, but since I got no reply, I decided to cross-post here. Please forgive me if that is incorrect] I'm trying to migrate an Active Directory domain (that is being used only for authentication) to a samba3 domain. The network is small enough to rejoin the clients one by one and recreate the user accounts if necessary. However, the new user

Hi, Using Samba 3.0.14a and AIX 4.3, I have been able to join PC's to the domain without any problem. It "just works". I am using local profiles, and serving login batch files from the server, and that "just works". So far, I'm a happy camper. Now, I am trying to understand permissions so that I can actually use the "moveuser.exe" command from the

Four years ago, I migrated our network from Windows NT based servers to Linux, Samba+LDAP based setups. This setup has worked fine. Last year, we replaced our Exchange 5.5 server - the last "real" Windows server - with Scalix. This last decision has come back to bite me. Several new "thingys" that the boss wants, among other things, are forcing me to implement Exchange

Hi, I would have to join 7 computers (a mix of win 8, 8.1, 10 WKSs) to samba 4.7 AD DC. After I will have joined those workstations to samba AD DC I would like the users to experience a minimal disruption of their Desktops and profiles. The computers have never been registered to any domain before. Can their existing local user names be mirrored on the ADDC (samba)? Can their user profiles be

Hello, since I found various bits of information but no howto or similar, I'd like to ask how you would handle the following scenario: - two domains with identical name on two physically totally separated networks, but with different IP-Subents (both in the private range 172.16.x). One domain has about 50 clients and users, the other about 25 - both domains have Samba 3.0.x configured as a

I just set up a Samba 3 PDC, and my users want to use their local profiles. Unfortunately their XP systems won't allow them to copy their existing profiles - that option grays out for their local accounts. Is there another way to accomplish this?

Mr. Gowda, Please review the following prior posts: "HOW TO: Migrating users' locally-stored profiles from one domain or workgroup to a new domain" http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2005-December/115326.html http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2005-December/115413.html Note that I have only performed this migration where the users had locally-stored profiles. If you are

Hello, i try to migrate user/groups from NT4 PDC to Samba3 with LDAP backend. There is already an NIS-Server with Samba runing, so there exists two userlists. I migrated the user/ groups from windows via net rpc vampire and added/changed the UID?s from the NIS-Server but didn?t change the SID. A teammate told me, there could be some access problems, if i don?t change the SID. So i tried to change

Hi list. We're running a Debian Etch Server with Samba 3.0.24 as primary domain controller for a XP dominated network. For various reasons, we're migrating our server to a new machine running on Centos 5.4 (and Samba 3.0.33). Additionally, I decided to get rid of our messy LDAP setup, as it is quite a pain to use and IMHO overkill for our small software shop (~15 machines / users),

Migrating Users Profiles When Changing Domain Affiliation: A Primer I. Introduction NOTE: This applies to Windows NT-based systems with locally-stored user profiles. Windows 9x and Me do not manage user profiles in the same way. Quite often we find the need to change a workstation's affiliation, either from a workgroup (that is, the workstation is not in a domain environment) to a domain,
