Hi all, Set-up: Local NT4-RESOURCE domain which the Samba server is a member off. One NT4-ADMIN domain with users accounts and one W2K domain with some other user accounts. A one way trust from NT4-ADMIN to NT4-RESOURCE and a one way trust from W2K to NT4-RESOURCE. Samba version 2.0.7 running on Solaris 2.6. According to...

A client has an existing NT4 domain with several NT4 servers. Two of the NT4 Servers function as a PDC and a BDC. We are installing Samba-3 on SuSE 9.0 Pro as a PDC with an LDAP backend, and decommissioning the NT4 PDC at the same time. So far, so good. We can also rebuild the old PDC hardware as a Samba-3 on SuSE 9.0 Pro BDC...

Hi, I use Xen 3.0.3-1 on a Debian Etch with LVM to store my DomUs. I already exploit a Windows 2000 in a DomU but I can''t install a windows NT4 Server: I have a death of Blue Screen during the installation begining. Did someone test that scary NT4 DomU with success? I think NT4 need a disk driver but wich one? and how can I give it one? My last solution to test is: to convert a NT4 vmware VM in a qemu img but how can I inject my img in a...

Hi, When installing Samba, I made it a PDC in a new domain. Now I would like the old NT4 PDC in the old domain to become a plain host in my Samba domain. Is this possible? I need to keep the old NT4 machine because it's running the Symantec Corporate Edition NAV. In other words, I have NEWDOMAIN with Samba PDC and all clients OLDDOMAIN with NT4 PDC alone, no client Can my NT4...

Hi, I am unclear on the relationship between the hostname, DNS domain, server's FQDN, NT4 domain name, etc. Quoting the HOWTO: "For the rest of the HOWTO we will assume that your DNS domain name is samdom.example.com, your short (also known as NT4) domain name is samdom, your Samba server's hostname is samba and the IP Address of your Samba server is 192.168.1.2." What...

Hello people, taken from http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/samba-bdc.html#minim-bdc > Can Samba Be a Backup Domain Controller to an NT4 PDC? > > No. The native NT4 SAM replication protocols have not yet been fully implemented. > > Can I get the benefits of a BDC with Samba? Yes, but only to a Samba PDC.The main reason for implementing a BDC is availability. If the PDC is a Samba machine, a second Samba machine can be...

Hi, We are testing samba 4.5.0 on hpux ia64. We are seeing below behavior. Please clarify the same 1. - Configure samba as nt4 server. - Mount any share folder from windows client with any user. Ex. user is *abc* - open any file from mount directory - Unmount share directory from Windows without closing the file. - Try to mount folder from same windows client with any other user. Ex. user is *xyz* - Mo...

Hello, I'm working on migrating an NT4 PDC to a Samba 3 PDC. The tricky part, is that the NT4 server is also running Exchange 5.5 which needs to remain running. So unlike a migrate and toss the NT4 system, I need to migrate, then demote the NT4 PDC to an NT4 Server, then (probably) rejoin the domain as Exchange Server will not run on a...

Hi all, I need to add a windows nt4 (sp6a) server to our samba-4.1.6 active directory. I installed nt4 as a 'stand alone server'. So far it doesn't work, I get: When selecting to 'create a computer account in the domain': - the machine account for this computer either does not exist or is inaccessible If I cr...

Hi Guys, Just need some guidance regarding AD across sites. We have two sites, siteA and siteB. Until about a month ago both sites were running NT4 domains, separate domains but with the same names, let's say thedomain. We classicupgrades siteA to AD and now need to migrate siteB to AD. The sites are connected with a WAN link We think ,the steps involved will be the following - Leave the NT4 server in siteB unchanged -...

Hello! It seems, that Vista SP1 and Server 2008 cannot join an NT4/Samba-domain. Vista once could join before SP1, if one did some modifications to the system (LAN Manager authentication level, Encryption of secure channel). But these workarounds do not seem to work with SP1 anymore. Microsoft points out that joining NT4-domains with Vista SP1 and Server 200...

Hi, we currently run one samba v3.0 domain "DOMAIN30" with WinXP domain members and Win7/8 accessing the file server without domain membership. Then we run a second samba v3.5 domain "NEWDOMAIN" with WinXP/7/8 domain members. Which was migrated from a NT4 PDC to samba 3.0 and to v3.5 eventually. Neither domain has anything fancy about it: users and joined workstations, but no trusts, almost no groups (could be re-created manually easily). a) I want to upgrade at least DOMAIN30 to a samba v3.5. And preferrably have one user base and one domain N...

Hi Haven't seen any responses to my earlier post (Transferring PDC duties to Samba) so here's a slightly different approach I'm trying which someone can hopefully shed some light on. Is it possible to transfer domain-specific data from an NT4 PDC to a Samba 2.2.2 server, switch off the NT4 machine, set up smb.conf, switch on the Samba box such that the attached NT4/Win2000 workstations are blissfully unaware that the PDC has changed? In other words, doing the equivalent of setting up Samba as a BDC then promoting it to PDC, albeit manua...

Here's the situation. We've got an old NT4 domain (not a Samba domain in NT 4 mode) which we'll call CRUSTY. There is of course an NT4 PDC and several NT4 BDCs. We have some Linux/Samba file servers (Samba 3.0.1) that are member servers (security = domain) of the NT4 domain. We also have several NT4 BDCs and about 200 workstations o...

Hi, Is it possible to replicate any major versions of Samba? As I don't know if there are major improvements/news on the trust relationship with Samba AD to Windows AD. Currently our setup is Samba3 DC with trust with Windows AD, i used to able to upgrade it on the dummy environment to Samba AD, but again the trust seems not working or maybe I missed something on my configurations. As

Yes, the current configurations have a trust between Windows AD and Samba NT4 as...

Hi, I thought Samba4 was able to do everything what was doing Samba3. According to that isn't it possible for you to add a new DC into your NT4 domain which runs Samba4? As it is a DC in addition to others DC (those running Samba3) your domain should continue to work as it did for years. You would just get another DC running more recent Samba. I expect that Samba4 as filesrv is able to communicate correctly with Samba4 as NT4 DC. If my s...

Could someone show me differences in both groups and users between a full NT4 LDAP schema and a full ActiveDirectory LDAP schema? Is ActiveDirectory fully retrocompatible with NT4? There are plans for supporting again an OpenLDAP backend when LDAPcon objectives will be achieved? https://ldapcon.org/2019/wp-content/events/presentations/ni_samba_backend.pdf Why an user in ol...
