...ely after I did a smbpasswd. Shouldn't setting it to 0 mean the password will never expire? Or are there any other way to set password to never expire? Here is the microsoft's interpretation on 'maximum password age': http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/proddocs/entserver/501.asp It said 0 = 'never expire'.

...I am a bit concerned about the user's profiles. These are local profiles. I want this domain move to be transparent to the users so I need to copy or move the individual profiles. I've seen this procedure for copying a profile (http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/sysdm_userprofile_copy.mspx?mfr=true) What I'm concerned about is if I move the profile wholesale into the new path, keys in the old user.dat might conflict with the new domain. Does anyone have any experience of this type of migration that can offer any advice? Thanks in advance, Derm...

Hello, I'm planning migration to Samba over Debian Etch servers from NT domain with Windows NT servers. I have only one domain, with 1 PDC and 5 BDC distributed on various subnets. Unfortunately I have running various services in PDC and BDC servers that I must remain after the migrations, so I can't stop PDC and BDC servers permanently after the migration to Samba. Can I deactivate

I have been running Samba 4 as an AD/DC for a couple of years now with few problems. I provisioned the domain using --dns-backend=BIND9_FLATFILE and the /etc/named.conf includes the samba-tool provision created file /var/lib/samba/private/named.conf, with zone files in /var/lib/samba/private/dns. All that has been working just fine for for 2 or 3 years. Lately, I added a VirtualBox XP guest

Hi all, Dave Burt mentioned the possibility of adding symlinks to the Dir class. http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/source/misc.shtml#junction There is also Autrijus Tang''s symlink Perl module at http://search.cpan.org/~autrijus/Win32-Symlink-0.04/ Looks easy enough, but it only seems to work for directories, not regular files. Should we add this to the Directory class, or simply

We have a Samba-4.3 AD-DC hosted on a FreeBSD-10.3 system. We have just discovered that for some reason our domain workstations are not synchronising their time with the AD-DC. We have not altered the default GPO nor have we created a special GPO to handle time services. I have been working on several of the domain clients and I cannot seem to get them to source from the Samba server. I have
