tdbsam.
The documentation says "As a general guide, the Samba Team does not
recommend using the tdbsam backend for sites that have 250 or more users".
Since we moved default passbd backend to tdbsam, does that statements still
holds true.
As an FYI, I am using Samba-3.2.4, idmap_rid with tdbsam as backend for
about 3 years with 2000 users on member server configuration authenticating
AD 2003.

central PDC + remote BDCs: LDAP strategy, my lack of comprehension
Hello, I am trying to figure out how to implement a samba domain in a
number of remote offices around the world with partly bad and often
interrupted WAN connections/VPNs. The goal is to administer the directory
from the central data center.
My obvious choice would be to set up a central server with
SAMBA+OpenLDAP+smbldap-tools and in each remote office a SAMBA server with

Hi all,
I'm under the gun to rid ourselves of the nt4 PDC which we
currently use. options are A/D, samba, pgina. I really dig pgina,

Samba3-beta1 as a PDC and using tdbsam as passdb backend it takes the home-directory info from /etc/passwd
I didn't get any answers so I try again:
I am using tdbsam as passdb backand.
I have added root user with pdbedit.
The machine trust account was added on the fly.

I have created the user in /etc/passwd.

that Samba didn't take the home-directory information from tdbsam, it

PDC and BDC: how to sync profiles
I was wondering how people sync the roaming profiles in an environment
with a PDC and multiple BDCs. Are profiles better stored in another
server (a member server) instead of the xDC?
I could use rsync from the PDC to the BDC, but that doesn't work the
other way around, i.e., when a user logs in via a BDC whatever changes
they make won't go back to the PDC. Unless the profile is:

Promote samba-3 BDC to PDC
Hi,
We have an old domain with a samba-3 PDC and LDAP backend in our HQ and
two BDC in our branch offices.
Since we don't use the domain in our HQ anymore and one of the branches
will be moved to our new domain (2003/2008) I'm thinking about
decomissioning the PDC and promote both BDCs as PDC for their branch
offices and networks.
I would also get rid of LDAP. Changing the backend to

Samba file server using ldap backend without AD or PDC?
Hi all,
I've been using samba for a few years now on a couple of file servers with a
tdbsam backend for our user accounts. We use openldap for the vast majority
of our identity management, so I would love to be able to tie into this. We
recently started using sambaNTPassword in openldap for radius
authentication, so this is populated for most of our users now.

Samba PDC, v3.0.25b, tdbsam: should Server have its own SID etc ?
Help...
I'm running Samba v3.0.25b, recently upgraded.
I use tdbsam, winbindd etc.
The Samba machine is a PDC. If the machine is FRED and the domain is
HOME, should I set up a machine account for FRED and join that to the
HOME domain ?
Should the machine FRED have its own domain SID ?
Or... is are the machine FRED and the domain HOME one and the same ?
Thanks,
Chris

New domain, Samba PDC, tdbsam, where are the groups?
I'm setting up a new domain with Samba 3.0.30 as the PDC using the
tdbsam backend. 'net group' yields an empty list, which is consistent
with the cautious appoach that Samba takes: don't do anything
automagically. But, a new Windows PDC will come online with several
well-known domain users and groups. Did I miss the step where I run
some stock script that creates these expected

Can anybody give me a hint how to set up Samba BDC(RedHat 9.0) with
rsync-ing WIN-NT PDC so that if WIN-NT PDC is down all the clients can
still get Authentication service from Samba BDC(RedHat 9.0). i have seen
in Samba documentation that it can be done using rsync but nowhwere it
is clearly explained howto do it.. I ran out of gas by looking through
google also... :-(

Migration from LDAP to tdbsam
I need to migrate from samba w/LDAP 2.2.8a to 3.0.1pre3 with tdbsam.
Any suggestions how to keep from having to change all the profiles?
I have read through chapter 30 of the HOWTO but it assumes keeping the
same backend. I need support to munge_dial and that is not available
without mysql or tdbsam....
Thanks in advance for your help.

PDC & file server on same machine?
How much of a resource hog is a PDC? My understanding is that authentication
is done vs a BDC if available. I configured my new file server as the domain
PDC because I figured it would already have to run samba. I have two other
machines configured as BDCs to serve as logon servers.
I'm looking for opinions on whether I'm asking for performance problems by
making my file server the

Re-doing tdbsam
Running Samba 3.x with tdbsam. Its a small nework of 4
Windwos XP machines. Having a little trouble adding the
machines to the domain. pdbedit shows duplication
machines names and such. Since its such a small number of
machines, want to just start over with a fresh tdbsam as
it seems faster then trying to clean it up. Can we just
delete the existing tdbsam? Stop and restart Samba and
