Hi I've been trying to finally switch off our NT4 PDC over the last few months and transfer PDC duties to our Samba file server. Although I have no difficulty in getting the Samba box to authenticate users as the PDC, I have never been able to migrate the user's settings over. As far as the clients (NT4 and W2K) are concerned, users effectively start with a "clean slate" i.e.

Hi all!! I'd set up my samba 2.2.7 to auth with "security=domain" mode, but my clients cannot auth successfully never because the samba server cannot "talk" correctly with my PDC(w2k adv. Server). In the computer manager event, I see authentication request but with empty usernames......so the PDC reject the authentication request. Is this a know

Hello, I am using smaba-3.0beta3 on linux (RedHat 7.3). I noticed that 'net rpc vampire' does not retrieve the existing SIDs from the domain PDC, rather it creates new ones. This is a problem if users have files saved locally on their NT workstations, as the SIDs won't match after the migration to samba PDC. Is there a way to migrate from an NT PDC to a samba one and still

If I start another machine und log in as a user, that was logged in before from

Hi list! I set up a new Samba 3 PDC with ldap backend. In our network, there already exists an old samba 2.2.8 PDC with ldap backend. Now I have two PDC named DOMAIN1 and DOMAIN2.

Is it possible to shut down DOMAIN1, and configure

Hello, i must admit that i'm totally lost. After working a lot of hours my new samba server is still not running fine. I had read a lot of papers but i have no idea what's going wrong.

Oh, so you are using ldap..., well I'm still working with smbpasswd as backend :-( Anyway, I tried 'net getlocalsid' for the domain-sid -> ok Next 'net usersidlist' which should show me the user-sids -> didn't work: "[2004/03/04 06:40:05, 0, pid=31232, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)] utils/net_rpc.c:net_usersidlist(2158) Could not get the user/sid list" So

I'm trying to migrate from an older samba 2.x PDC machine into a new machine that has samba 3.x and also uses an LDAP backend. I've heavily used the IDEALX.org website and documentation to get the vast majority of the work accomplished and working. I had to modify some scripts that were referenced there for migrating posix accounts over to LDAP so that they could also handle

Hi I am trying to join Samba 2.23 to W2K domain.

few day ago, i've asked about mapping unix-windows groups under samba 2.2.7a. now, i know that it is impossible. so i've changed samba on my PDC to 3.0 version (smbgroupedit). but still i've got problems with groups. before - from another machine when i've used 'wbinfo -g'i've got response from my PDC: Domain Admins Domain Users after change to samaba 3.0 with the

I dont think its a OS problem, Im using suse 8.1. If you log into the windows box as root you can see the groups and the users in the groups. Any other user including domain admins can not. This would indicate that there is a problem with samba, either with ACLs accessing group information or passing group/user information from the system to a smbd process owned by a user other than root.

Hello all, I'm using samba 2.2.7a acting as PDC on my lan (clients are only Windows 2000 Professional). All is working fine except one thing: Active Directory!

Hi all, is it possible for Samba 2.2.5 to use the RIDs out of LDAP instead calculating them? I am trying to migrate a W2K workstation from a W2K PDC to a Samba 2.2.5 PDC without re-joining the Domain. I have given the Domain SID, the W2K PDC netbios name and the Domain name to the Samba PDC. Then I have created the account for the W2K workstation in the LDAP-directory with the password and the

Hi I'm currently working on a project aiming at replacing all windows servers (about 20) in my company by linux servers. Some of these windows servers are windows 2000 domain controlers (one PDC and few BDCs) with active directory. We have about 900 client windows 2000 workstations and about 2/3 of them are domain members. Our goal is to replace the windows servers that are domain controlers
