similar to: Transferring PDC duties to Samba

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

I am currently trying to transpose some large panel data set ie transposing multiple rows in into a single column. instead the transpose functionality transposes all rows into columns. my sample data set looks like below: ACCT_NUM ACCOUNT_NAME TRAN_AMT DATE EMPLOYER 101913 GK 7489 30-Apr-10 PENSION 101913 GK 7489 30-May-10 PENSION 101913

Hello all, I hope this is an easy one, I've read all the howtos but I'm still very hazy on how to do this. What I want to do is replace my NT4 PDC with a Samba 3.0 PDC with an LDAP backend. I've got my OpenLDAP up and running with the basic People, Computers and Groups ou's. I've put the builtin NT groups in too. I have Samba 3.0 functioning as a BDC The trouble is

Hi, Is there a way in which i can run pwdump on Linux (without dosemu or wine). I have a cron job on NT which runs rdist /S to generate the Sam backup in the Repair folder. I Then copy this file to Linux. I need to run pwdump now and get the userid's. I also need to extract the group information. I dont think pwdump extracts that. Is there some way i can get this info too. The reason for

Hi, I would like to migrate from NT PDC to a Samba PDC. My main concern is that all my users have local profile (i.e. there is no roaming profiles). It seems that users profiles on a workstation are not valide when migrating to the Samba PDC. It seams that the users cannot keep the same identity. On the other hand, I would really like to change PDC without users noticing anything. Tools

Hi, I had trouble getting the pwdump program to work correctly on a german version of NT4SP3. I believe the problem is based on the fact that the german group 'Administrators' is called 'Administratoren', and Administrators is hard-coded into the utility. Would it be possible to make that an optional parameter? Unfortunately, I have no access to a C-Compiler on an NT-station, so

This patch removes a lot of #include from files in openbsd-compat/ since "includes.h" is included prior to the others and therefore includes the headers first. Is it OK, or is it a design decision to have the includes specific to the c-files in the c-files as well? There is also the correction of an error. In openbsd-compat/readpassphrase.c there was #ifndef HAVE_READPASSPHRASE

Hello Everyone, I have read all the man pages and the "HOW-TO-PDC..." related to the operation and configuration of SAMBA. I don't however, see anything detailing a move away from WinNT to SAMBA PDC. Can someone point me to a doc or website that has helped them migrate as smooth as possible? I heard there is a way of grabbing passwords using pwdump, users uid, and the Domain ID.

That doesn't help my version of the problem, though.

Hi, 1. I want to migrate NT to Samba 3 domain without needing to rejoin all machine (using same domain name and SID). just curious, machine account should belong to what group sid? does it matter if belong to any value? 2. I just examine output of pwdump, some of member domain or even NT BDC is has "*****" in password field which means this account was disabled. I've verified that

Hi, We are migrating from Unix Server to Linux, so the ASU (Advanced Server for Unix) will be replaced by Samba. The pwdump for Nt is pretty for Windows NT, but I don't know if there is an Unix dump tool to transfer the ASU SAM database to the Samba's smbpasswd file. Any help is welcomed!

On Nov. 5, Juergen Bock wrote (in a message titled "32/64bit locking problem with 2.2.2") that he was seeing a 32/64bit locking error in his logs. I have also seen this problem. I have a little more information that indicates that this behavior started after samba version 2.2.0a. Here are the samba versions I have tested: Samba 2.2.0a (compiled on rh7.1 system with kernel 2.4.5)

Hi, we tried to migrate an NT4 Domain to Samba3.0.4. We took the easy aproach and started to dump the NT PW Database with "pwdump" and the groups with "addusers" which were used to build the initial LDAP DB for the Samba Server. The SID was set and the Samba PDC was started as a replacement for the NT one. Loggin on to the Domain with Windows 200x and XP machines works

Hi all, I read a few posts a while back from people who were trying to get this done. Has anyone succeeded in doing a transparent (or an as-close-to-as-possible) migration of an NT4 PDC to a Samba PDC? I know it entails stuff like snatching the passwords with pwdump or the like, and importing them into smbpasswd/LDAP, and toying around with RID's/SID's for the new PDC to make it look

I'm migrating a NT4 PDC over to a Samba OpenLDAP PDC. I've migrated the user and computer accounts fine. I using pwdump and the tools from http://samba.idealx.org/, to do this. But I'm at a lose with migration of groups from NT4 PDC over to the Samba LDAP PDC. I've heard it's possible with rpcclient. Any information on how to do this would be appreciated. -Jason Yates

On a small Intranet (9 fixed client + some notebooks) we have decided to switch the PDC over a more reliable Linux server, actually running Samba 2.2.5 + OpenLDAP 2.0.25. To restructure the scenario, I've found very useful IDEALX's tools and pwdump. All the users and machines accounts were succesfully migrated into LDAP without any particular problem, and this was so far easy to do.

reetings, Greetings, Can anyone help me find out how to migrate Active Directory users to Samba+LDAP? I have everything working: Samba+LDAP+Kerberos PDC in Debian and I also have a Windows Active Directory in production with more than 100 users added. I just want to transfer all the AD users to de PDC in Debian. I tried using pwdump to extract AD users but with no positive results. Please
