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

>From what I can tell it does look as if I have to run winbindd on member servers, even if NIS is used, to get SID's mapping consistently across the domain. The PDC is Samba 3.025a on Solaris 10. Two member servers are Samba 3.025a on solaris 9. If i start winbindd on a memv, the "wbinfo -u" and "wbinfo -g" commands show my users and groups. However, the

Hi ! We're trying to migrate our NT4 PDC into a Samba one. Our env : NT4_PDC is in subnet A and also provide WINS service SAMBA_SRV is in subnet B and is running : * samba-3.0alpha23 * openldap-2.1.16 * smbldap-tools-0.7 from IDEALX samba is compiled with --with-ldap --with-ldapsam --with-syslog openldap is first populated with : # ldapadd -x -h localhost -D "ROOTDN" -W -f

Hi All, setup: Solaris 9/Samba 3.0.1/smbldap-tools 0.8.2 If I run 'net rpc vampire', smbldap-groupadd.pl will run and for the first group Domain Admins and will say 'gave 0'. But for all subsequent groups the samba attributes are missing and the gidNumber is 10000 and will say 'gave 7'. LDIF: dn: cn=Domain Admins,ou=Groups,dc=samba,dc=org objectClass: posixGroup

I now have one PDC (Samba 3.026a on Solaris 10) and several member servers (including Samba 3.026a on Solaris 9 and 10, and Samba 3.024 on Fedora core 6.) Each machine uses NIS for unix accounts. If I start smbd and nmbd on a member server, I can connect to a share from a windows 2000 or XP client. If I look at the permissions on a folder, if shows "Unix Account/someuser" or

"net rpc vampire ..." does NOT set the SAM or SECURITY hives of the registry to "readable", which is what renders the PDC non-operable. "net rpc vampire ..." is safe to use as many times as it takes to get comfortable with the process. I did it my self when I was converting our "labs" NT4 domain to Samba. --

Hi all, Thank you for your help, and sorry for my late answer. Everything works fine by now ! Yes, you have to become a BDC to vampire the accounts ! This is why I was getting an "Access denied" error : I thought my Samba was a BDC, but I forgot to add "domain logon = Yes" in my smb.conf, so Samba was a simple share server. Here is the steps I followed to suck the accounts :

Reading through the Samba3 -By Example guide and I'm confused with the statement section 9.2 http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/ntmigration.html#id2594565 about accessing the SAM and Security sections of the registry will render the PDC non operable. Its clear from the text if you go and edit the registry(regedit etc..) so you can read the entries your PDC will not work.

Hi All, I have a query regarding the interaction between Samba, LDAP and vampire. The situation is as follows. I have five NT4 servers serving 1000 users 700 of which have 4-digit numeric logins.
