similar to: Duplicate group mappings - which ones to delete?

So, I followed these directions and got errors in log.nmbd regarding "domain_master_node_status_fail". There were still entries for the old server's ip address in connections.tdb, gencache.tdb, locking.tdb and sessionid.tdb, so I stopped samba, deleted them and restarted. All was well. I then changed the SID using "net setlocalsid

Hi, How can I remove the "domain PHOENIX" SID from the PDC? It was a test domain I had set up before this machine went live around 18 months ago. I believe this is the issue that's causing me to have problems migrating this PDC to a new machine. This is the output from the current PDC: phoenix:/ # net getlocalsid SID for domain PHOENIX is: S-1-5-21-3597458131-155160113-1223051555

Hello I have been solving a problem how to make a nonroot user able to administer the domain (add users, groups, modify them etc.) from Windows workstation using usrmgr.exe It looks like what is stated in Samba HOWTO collection as prerequisites is not enough.

I currently have samba version 3.0.23 installed using ldap as the backend. I am experiencing the same problems as Holger Wesser mentioned in his posting "USRMGR.exe not working properly". However, it appears that the fix of creating the group mappings does not work. They appear to be mapped correctly on my setup. My net groupmap list is: Domain Admins

Hello everybody. I have noted a strange problem when using Usrmgr.exe (from srvtools). The problem arise when a net groupmap is done on a group for which a user exist with the same name that the specified unixgroup. For example, lets say that I have the following UNIX user and group create on my Samba server : joe (in /etc/group) joe (in /etc/passwd) Now I create the following map : net

I'm using a tdbsam database with Samba 3.0.11 on a machine that's getting a little long in the tooth. I'd like to move the whole deal to a new machine without any reconfiguring on the clients - I'm happy with a little downtime - out of office hours the system is hardly used anyway. I'd like to upgrade to 3.0.21c at the same time. I'm thinking: 1. backup domain data on

There must be a way to change that

USRMGR seems to work fine for user accounts, and it also correctly displays the list of group objects (these are all stored in LDAP btw). This can be seen in http://www.ehsco.com/misc/samba/umgr-main.gif Two of the groups can be managed while the other two cannot. For example, http://www.ehsco.com/misc/samba/umgr-admins.gif
