similar to: Migrate NT domain 4 to samba

I tried "net lookup dc" and samba PDC did not show. The NT machine we have has been shut down and not functional anymore. Right now, we only have one linux box with gentoo running samba and we want it to be the PDC.

I just did a clean install of Fedora 9 onto a Pentium 4 machine. It is actually running SELinux enforcing, but I haven't found any errors related to that so far. It is running Samba 3.2.3-0.20. I am trying to migrate a Windows NT 4.0 domain with about 30 users and 30 computers onto a pure Samba setup, using Samba as the PDC and tdbsam. I have read the HOWTO guide extensively, and

I am currently planning "half a migration" (and half a new configuration) from NT to Samba PDC, and I would like to have some help. I have read the howto and I have understood something useful, but I also understood that I don't know enough of Samba domain internals to be sure not to make terrible mistakes. I currently have a NT4 PDC that also shares files and

Hi all, I'm trying to migrate NT PDC server to Samba PDC. and now i use samba 3.0.0beta2. I looks the migration steps from samba-howto-collection.pdf or in http://us2.samba.org/samba/ftp/cvs_current/docs/htmldocs/nt4migration.html, and it's not works well.

Hello, I have been working to migrate away from my failing NT PDC to Samba (3.0.23d) on a Solaris 8 server running NIS. Passwords, etc.. are kept in /etc/yp/passwd, and the passwd command is used to change passwords (not yppasswd). I have used the vampire command to migrate all user accounts from the NT machine, while Samba acts as the BDC. This appears to work correctly, and output from

How can I give a user account the ability to join or add computer to the domain? Below are the steps I did but none work: 1. Edit smb.conf file and add the following line. # domain administrators domain admin group = root user1 user2 @sysadmin domain admin users = @sysadmin I have a group called "sysadmin" on my /etc/group profile and added both user1 and user2. 2. Map

I'm helping out a small office upgrade their NT 4 PDC to Samba. It's a small office of 6 people, so tdbsam is being used. They keep having tape backup issues and other problems, so one of the reasons for the Samba migration is to allow me to SSH into their box and remotely administer it from home on evenings/weekends. Currently I'm testing the move using two dummy machines, and

I am replacing an old NT4.0 Server with a debian 4.0R1 etch Linux server (samba 3.0.24). This was with a completely fresh install of debian. My smb.conf is pretty simple: [global] workgroup = BUTLER netbios name = STAR3 passdb backend = tdbsam domain master = No domain logons = Yes os level = 33 add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m '%u' delete

Hi, Does someone know how will all my client machines find the BDC when the PDC is stopped. Both PDC and BDC are running Samba with LDAPSAM backend replicated on both the PDC with master LDAP database and BDC with replicated LDAP database. But when I stop PDC the clients are not detecting the BDC broadcast. The replication on all domain controllers are perfect. I went as far as making BDC

Hi all, I am trying to migrate NT4 domain to Samba-3 PDC, yet I stuck at migrating NT4 PDC information using "net rpc vampire" -- giving "segmentation fault". Any help? I use: Debian Linux, Samba 3.0.21a-Debian The steps that I did: a. In NT's server manager, I created GL-BACKUP as BDC b. Here is my smb.conf [global] workgroup = GLNET netbios name =

Hi Folks, as promised, here's what I did to get net rpc vampire working. There's a question at the bottom that someone might be able to answer for me. If the detail below is sane, I'll tidy it up some and submit it as a proper HOWTO. If not, please tell me where I'm being insane :) ====================================================================== Using 'net rpc

Since I have had trouble getting the net rpc vampire command to properly migrate passwords, I have been looking into stripping down the net rpc samdump results into a smbpasswd backend file, then importing from there into my tdbsam. The first problem I ran into is that the samdump produces RID values from the domain, whereas I need it to represent UIDs that already exist. No problem, since my

Greetings I have twice before set up samba to operate with user information stored in ldap for personal and test usage. I have not however in the past migrated users from a windows domain to a samaba-ldap domain for my employer. I understand that vampire is the appropriate tool to do just that. We are preparing to discontinue the use of active directory and start using samba3-ldap. From my

Hi, I'm attempting to migrate an NT4 domain to Samba3, and getting quite frustrated with stuff that seems not to work as advertised. I'd appreciate any help. I've set up an OpenLDAP server, and Samba 3, configured it as a BDC, and tried running "net rpc vampire". This all works, and Samba does the appropriate stuff to try and populate the LDAP database. The scripts I've

Hi, I have searched for days on Google and can't find a clear answer to my question. I have a NT4 PDC which I am migrating to Samba 3 (Version 3.4.2-47.fc12) on FC12 with kernel(2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686). I am using tdbsam as my passdb backend. I setup Samba as a BDC and then joined to NT4 Domain succesfully. When I go to vampire the accounts I get lots of errors and some user accounts get

Greetings everyone I finally succeeded in doing the seemingly most difficult thing, "following directions." I got my act together configuring the smb.conf and migrating using net rpc vampire into tdbsam. There are issues with this migration in which computer netbios names which are obviously all uppercase were not being created in /etc/passwd. I put my C cap on and converted the computer
