Hi, I'm trying to prepare migration from NT4 server to samba with ldap backend. For testing and simulating I have prepared one NT4 server, one Centos 5.5 samba server and now I have almost working setup for vampiring users and groups. Using following packages: samba3.i386 3.5.7-43.el5 samba3-cifsmount.i386 3.5.7-43.el5 samba3-client.i386 3.5.7-43.el5 samba3-doc.i386 3.5.7-43.el5

Hello, I have been using successfully Dovecot 1.1.x for about a year now. It has been very stable.

Could anybody direct me to feature comparision document or explain here main differences betweeen thos two branches? -- Veiko

Hi ! I'm trying to migrate accounts from my NT4 server, I followed each step described in the HOWTO : - tunred off samba - set domain master at "No" in config file - created groups + mappings as it is advised to - created the BDC account in the NT4 server manager - net rpc join'ed the domain but when I try to vampire user/group accounts, here is what I get : # net rpc vampire

I find Linux to be a nightmare if usernames have capital letters. Some old Windows PDCs that we are vampiring have usernames with capital letters. AFAIK you can't change a windows username Is there a way of telling the vampire to make all usernames lowercase as it imports them? Can I use pdbedit or any other tool to make them lowercase? At the moment I am changing /etc/passwd and the

Hi, I am in the processof migrating a a NT4 PDC over to a samba3 server.

Hi, Can someone help me get "net rpc vampire" in one of its forms working. The objective is to migrate from an NT4 PDC to a SAMBA 3.0 PDC using LDAP as a back end. I am trying to migrate the user and machine accounts across in a lab environment, separate from the main network (I have replicated the PDC to do this). I have samba-3.0.20b built from the samba team source RPM on Fedora

"net rpc vampire ..." does NOT set the SAM or SECURITY hives of the registry to "readable", which is what renders the PDC non-operable. "net rpc vampire ..." is safe to use as many times as it takes to get comfortable with the process. I did it my self when I was converting our "labs" NT4 domain to Samba. --

Hi all, Thank you for your help, and sorry for my late answer. Everything works fine by now ! Yes, you have to become a BDC to vampire the accounts ! This is why I was getting an "Access denied" error : I thought my Samba was a BDC, but I forgot to add "domain logon = Yes" in my smb.conf, so Samba was a simple share server. Here is the steps I followed to suck the accounts :

I have one HP Proliant DL320 G5p, where for some reason, the AHCI mode is not enabled. According to server specs, it should have AHCI/NCQ capability, but ata_piix module gets loaded during bootup, not ahci module. Any ideas how to enable AHCI mode? lspci output: # lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 3200/3210 Chipset DRAM Controller (rev 01) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation

Reading through the Samba3 -By Example guide and I'm confused with the statement section 9.2 http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/ntmigration.html#id2594565 about accessing the SAM and Security sections of the registry will render the PDC non operable. Its clear from the text if you go and edit the registry(regedit etc..) so you can read the entries your PDC will not work.

Hi, I have Centos 5.5 64b with Sernet samba 3.5.6-43.el5 packages. It is configured as domain member server, providing file and printer services.

Hi All, I have a query regarding the interaction between Samba, LDAP and vampire. The situation is as follows. I have five NT4 servers serving 1000 users 700 of which have 4-digit numeric logins. I have a Samba PDC that I'd like to transfer all the accounts and data to, Vampire being the obvious method. I can't transfer the logins to POSIX accounts due to the numeric uid/gid system

Hello Samba People, it is my first letter to Samba ML, so first of all - thanks Samba team for a great SW. Now the question: I want to migrate from Win2003 AD to Samba 3.3.2. I want to use net vampire feature to import all account information (is there any other way to do it?). Net vampire works partly - in the direct meaning of this word - it is importing only 131 objects. How come? Full

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?

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

All, I'm trying to migrate to samba3 from nt4. Unsuccesfully so far :-(. Instructions are from idealx how-to v1.6.
