I'm compiling samba-3.0.23b as I write this. However, after studying the documentation, I have some serious concerns about installing it. The WHATSNEW file says that the method of mapping unix-native uids and gids to SIDs has changed since 3.0.22. As I read this, this would imply that upgrading Samba will cause much breakage because domain users will no longer be able to access files they

Hi, I am trying a test of migrating a NT4 Domain to Samba 3 Beta 3 configured to use LDAP on Redhat 8. Is this possible? Details ------- I previously had Beta 2 on LDAP running as it's own domain controller without problem and could create users (in LDAP) with smbpasswd -a. XP clients could join and login OK. Now I have flushed that setup and have loaded Beta 3 configured to use LDAP,

I am curious. I have joined my 3.0.6 samba server to my NT4 domain. However, when I do a net groupmap list, I notice that the SID of the Samba Domain accounts (i.e. Domain Admins, Domain Guests, Domain Users) is not the same as the sid of the domain that it is joined to, when doing a net rpc getsid. Why is this? Does this mean that the Domain accounts in Samba are not really associated with the

I am using an ldap backend. I am not convinced everything is set-up correctly. Before I began I removed all /var/lib/samba/*tdb and shutdown smb and ldap. At point 13 where you do `getent group` the Domain

hi list&john, i read in the documention about BDCs: The domain SID has to be the same on the PDC and the BDC. In Samba versions pre-2.2.5, the domain SID was stored in the file |private/MACHINE.SID|. For all versions of Samba released since 2.2.5 the domain SID is stored in the file |private/secrets.tdb|. This file is unique to each server and cannot be copied from a PDC to a BDC; the BDC

I have removed ANDIrand from my Solaris8 system and installed patch 112438-01 which provides native /dev/random and /dev/urandom devices.

They all have identical netlogon
