OK, since I'm still happily goofing off with Samba4, just wondering.... If I use ntdsutils on say a W2K3R2 server to transfer PDC roles and etc, is there a way to take them back on the S4A11 server? Or am I WAAAY ahead of schedule on that bit? Any pointers greatly appreciated. TMS III

Is there a list of commands for cleaning up orphaned DC's. I used ntdsutil on the Windows boxes no problem. Used an LDAP gui tool to remove the LDAP entries. Sadly Samba4 is still trying to contact the orphan. Any guidance or manual page would be appreciated. Cheers, TMS III

I'm trying to join a Linux server running Samba 4.0.4 as a DC to an existing AD domain. The current DC (server1) is running Server 2008 not R2. The Samba server (server2) is using internal DNS. I'm following "Samba4/HOWTO/Join a domain as a DC" from the wiki. The join seems to work, but I'm having problems with DNS replication. During the join many DNS records for

Hello, I recently migrated our samba 3 domain to an AD domain using Samba 4 classic upgrade tool. DNS is provided by the internal dns server of Samba 4. I promoted a Windows 2k8 box as a new DC of this domain and I transfer all the 5 FSMO roles to this windows box. Now I would like to demote the Samba4 DC but when I tried I got this message : # samba-tool domain demote ERROR: Current DC is

Hi everyone, in samba 4.5 changelog, it says that samba AD now supports tombstone reanimation. I've been used to ldbrename and ldbmodify to reanimate objects to keep objectSID, but if it is now officially supported, it would be better to use the proper way. Sysinternals tool adrestore [1] seems to be working properly (it does not restore most attributes, but this is expected since

Hello list, I have samba 4 as BDC,I need to promove this server as PDC and eliminate my windows server 2003, but I do not want to write all users again, then I can make it as follow: 1- In the console of windows run ntdsutil 2- After write roles and press enter 3- write connections and press enter 4- write connect to server \\PC with samba4 5- write quit and press enter 6- Write in this order

Hi, Thanks for your quick help. I await the patch. I know the source DC is all that clean. I am trying to clean the source DC using "ntdsutil". I am not sure how far this exercise will be successful. -- Thanks & Regards, Anantha Raghava Do not print this e-mail unless required. Save Paper & trees.

Hi guys, I'm about to replace an existing Windows Server 2003 Active Directory domain with Samba4 (package from Debian Wheezy). Joining the Samba4 dc according the Samba Wiki[1] is working great, replication works without errors from both worlds (windows or samba). After transferring the fsmo roles with ntdsutil to the samba4 domain controller (btw: does it matter if ntdsutil or samba-tool

Disturbing... Every where I read I see only 5 roles to transfer in windows 2003 server : * /transfer PDC/ * /transfer RID master/ * /transfer infrastructure master/ * /transfer naming master/ * /transfer schema master/ How to transfer the 2 other "roles"?

Hi All, Does anyone know if there's a Samba 4 to Samba 4 migration process? Sounds weird, but it has a logical reason: I've a several-year-old S4 implementation, from an early Alpha (10 I think?) that hasn't been in the best of shape of late - when S4 4.0.0 arrived, I accidentally upgraded using my normal "git pull; ./configure; make; make install" procedure and instead of

I'm trying to use the same hostname. The meta cleanup - I can't see the demoted controller in ADUC nor in Active Directory Sites and Services. Shall I try via ntdsutil?

Hi, we're using Zentyal 3.4/Samba 4.1.6 on two machine for our AD domain. We have to test the domain in "pure" microsoft environment, because a third party storage system. So I added DC and DNS role to one of our windows 2008R2, and joined it to our domain. Everything's fine at this point. Then I wanted transfer the 5 FSMO role to windows. Every role transferred successfully,

I have the Active Directory domain with Windows 2008 R2 domain controller and Samba domain controller on CentOS 7. Samba is 4.3.5 (self-compiled). Forest and domain levels are Windows 2008 R2. After joining Samba to the domain as the domain controller there were no DC=ForestDnsZones and DC=DomainDnsZones records on "OUTBOUND NEIGHBORS". I fixed it with ntdsutil, as it's written here

Dear Davor We receive an error message at the command "list domains" ntdsutil metadata cleanup connections connect to server <DC with fsmo roles> quit select operation target error: error at handling the input invalid syntax -> list domains But the command is correct!

Hi all- I've been polishing my Samba4 AD set-up as we get close to deploying it the office. However, one thing that I'm having issues with is FSMO roles and DCs. The gist of the situation is that I can not demote the original DC. Both DCs are implemented with Samba4, running the same version (4.0.3) and have replication working* Here is a summary of everything I've noticed: ?

I'm in no position, at the time being, to be of any good help and give advice. Sorry for that. Try do a meta data cleanup "the GUI way"; check DNS, System container, AD sites and services etc. And remove any remains of the old DC.

Hello all, I'm always trying to migrate from W2000 server to Samba 4. For doing this, I tried this : - install a W2003 server with AD and DNS services, join it to W2000, transfer roles and after demote the old W2000 -> done - install a Sernet Samba4 with Bind9, join W2003, transfer roles -> done At this point the sync process is working in two way, I can manage DNS and AD with rsat
