I would like to migrate users into my Samba3 server. Problem is I have a sambaDomainSID that conflicts with my Windows domain SID. My backend is LDAP. I'm not sure what to delete so I can get my SambaDomainSid in sync with Windows domain SID and start migrating users. Thanks! TJ ------------------------ Cannot import users from LABOR at this time, as the current domain:

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

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

Does Samba 3.0.2a release integrate with Windows Active Directory running in 2003 Native Mode? The situation is that two corporate departments are joining their network infrastructure. One department runs several Samba 2.2 servers and the other is a 2003 Native Mode Active Directory. I understand that if you upgrade to Samba 3.0 this supports Windows 2000 AD, but it is unclear to me if

When BDC will not make any changes in ldap, is it safe to not set any *script paramater in smb.conf? --beast

I've got two sites that I am planning a Samba3/LDAP implementation on, each will have its own local server. The problem is that I want to implement in my local office first, which is not the site that eventually will be the 'master' site. Sometime later when the proper master site comes online, I'd like to demote for lack of a better term, my local machine to a BDC and then

I'm having problems getting "Secret is bad" with the command "wbinfo -t". I get good results with "wbinfo -u", "wbinfo -g", and "wbinfo -m". I also have positive results with all the samba tests in DIAGNOSIS.txt. I've tried deleting the computer account and recreating many times on my Windows 2000 Domain Controller (everything is native

OpenLDAP Ver: 2.0.27-8 Just a quick question about PDC / BDC interaction, my plan is to distribute Samba (with slave ldap backend) BDCs to remote facilities, as well as have one on each network segment in the hopes of avoiding unnecessary nmb broadcast traffic.

Hi all ! In the samba-Howto, i was looking on informations on how to set up both a samba PDC and a samba BDC controller with ldap backend. I can read: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Do not install a Samba PDC on a OpenLDAP slave server... Possible PDC/BDC plus LDAP configurations include: . PDC -> LDAP master server, BDC -> LDAP slave server.

Hi, I am having problems getting winbind on a BDC to work in a Samba3 /LDAP Enviornment and have one straightforward question. Should the secrets.tdb file on the BDC contain an entry with the name of the BDC , e.g. where BACKUP is the name of the BDC ?. { key = "SECRETS/SID/BACKUP" data =

I'm sorry if this has been asked a quadrillion times before, but i was just wondering about it: I know samba can't be a BDC for ADS. I also know that OpenLDAP can sync with a MS ADS Server. Samba can also auth against both ldap and ADS. so, shoudln't it be possible to use a Samba/openLdap server combination as a Local Master kind of think as a type of BDC for an ADS Domain? Or are

Hi. I don't find a way to make a Samba BDC replicate an AD Server. I need to authenticate in Samba BDC if my link with AD PDC goes down. I read that it is not possible. Is this true ? Samba 4 will do this ? Thanks, **-- Marcelo H. Terres mhterres@gmail.com

Hello, I'm still trying to get this straightened out. I have the following system: System description RedHat 8.0 LDAP 2.1.23 Samba 3.0 I have basically 2 BDC that I want users to have home directories on. These also run LDAP backend as slave servers. Do all machines using the domain need to have machine accounts on the PDC or do some that use the BDC for home directories need to have

Hello!! A customer of mine recently experienced a catastrophic failure of their PDC, and their BDC is not running as stable as we'd like. They've agreed to move PDC/BDC schema to Linux (currently they run NT4). So the question is: having ONLY a BDC available for SAM database, how do I extract that so I can replicate that to Samba and do a "transparent" upgrade (if possible)?

Hi, I am searching for information on how to set up an NT4 RAS server to authenticate users against a Samba 3 PDC. Right now we have 2 domain controllers and the plan is to phase them out. We want to set up samba as the PDC, but we need RAS to work for the time being. Is there a way to do this? We are going to use the LDAP backend for samba. Is it also possible to have our NT4 BDC stay
