similar to: Upgrading from 2.2.7 to 3.0.3

We have been using samba 2.2.7 for awhile now with ldap no problem. We are ready to move to Samba 3 though, and this is where the trouble begins. We do not have a domain set up. We have a few samba boxes and they just use the ldap servers to get their passwords from. (no roaming desktops or anything like that.) I did a bit of reading up and see that I need to run the convertSambaAccount script

Hello, I'm lloking for a way to convert my company's existing samba2.2 ldap backed service to samba 3.0. What's particulary making me curious is the sambaSID. As I've read it is the unique identifier of a PDC in the windows world. So, how does samba3 generate this? Is it supposed to be changed by the admin or is it determined by samba on the first startup? Any pointer to a doc

I've been using Samba 2.x authenticating UNIX and Samba users to OpenLDAP 2.0.x fro quite some time. Now I need to upgrade OpenLDAP to 2.2.x and Samba to 3.0.x.

Now when I try to use the convertSambaAccount script to move to the new Samba schema it says "You

Hello Samba People, it is my first letter to Samba ML, so first of all - thanks Samba team for a great SW. Now the question: I want to migrate from Win2003 AD to Samba 3.3.2. I want to use net vampire feature to import all account information (is there any other way to do it?). Net vampire works partly - in the direct meaning of this word - it is importing only 131 objects. How come? Full

I'm in the middle of a migration from Samba 2.2.7a to 3.0. I'm trying to create an LDAP enabled back-end like I had in 2.2.7a. During my testing, I've discovered that I no longer can use the user account information in the LDAP directory to gain Unix shell access as I had previously. This may be "by design", but I just want to make sure that I didn't miss something. I
