similar to: after demoting a dc question

I followed the "Demoting_a_Samba_AD_DC" on the Samba Wiki. After demoting the online controller and receiving a "successful" notation I scrolled down to the "Verifying The Demotion" via the listed Windows RSAT. The controller was not listed as a domain controller any more. Only the remaining two DC's appeared. Great! The "Active Directory Sites and

So, for now, should I work my way through the DNS manager and delete any references for the old dc manually or just leave it alone?

I have been replacing some "old" hardware and have demoted two DC's with 'samba-tool' as per the Samba wiki demotion page. When running Louis' "samba-info.sh" script, that script still finds the presence of the old, now demoted DC hostnames. Further investigation thru RSAT (W10) found the demoted both DC's still listed under the ADUC>Computers (along

Hello, I am running in a duplicate test environment of my work domain. I have 2 x 4.1 DCs and 2 x 4.7 DCs. I have transferred FSMO role to #3 and it is replicating to #4 fine. I have demoted #1 which appeared to go fine and have turned it off. When I try to demote #2 it fails with the error... Using dc3.domain.com as partner server for the demotion Password for [DOMAIN\administrator]:

I Google searched this morning and had found this: " https://superuser.com/questions/1281015/changing-computer-name-on-dns-samba4-ad-server" which discusses a similarity to your suggestion. I was concerned because I cannot tell if the OP is referencing 'internal dns' or 'bind9'. However, what the OP is talking about doing, makes sense. (Could be later today before I

Replaced as instructed and ran the command. It claimed "success", however (RSAT) DNS Manager still shows demoted DC as SOA record. BTW, this demoted DC is now shut off. Suggestions? > Run this on a DC: > > samba-tool dns delete 127.0.0.1 samdom.example.com @ NS fqdn_string -U > Administrator > > Replace: 'samdom.example.com' with your dns domain name. >

I have manually removed all entries of the demoted DC with the exception of the SOA record. The DNS Manager (offered by RSAT) will not allow adjustment of the SOA record. I have begun searching for a linux solution. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I had tried to demote a samba DC and re-join it as a member over the weekend, but something went horribly wrong. Starting point was a samba DC which also acted as a file server. It was the single DC in that domain. I first set up a Windows 2008 R2 machine and promoted it to DC within the same domain. I then changed DNS entries on all machines to point to the new DC, transferred the FSMO

The "DNS_TYPE_NS" records show the correct DC's (both, I have two). The "DNS_TYPE_A" records show the correct DC's ip addresses. The "DNS_TYPE_SOA" shows the demoed DC FQDN in the "mname" > It should produce the SOA record (after you make the obvious changes), > what 'dnsRecord' objects does it show ? There should a

Demotion of a AD DC fails with the following errors: If I explicitly select a partner server with the "--server=" option the error is: Deactivating inbound replication Asking partner server [selectedDC] to synchronize from us Error while demoting, re-enabling inbound replication ERROR(<type 'exceptions.UnboundLocalError'>): uncaught exception - local variable

A few days ago I demoted my first DC (a v4.2.14, I think) and thought the demote had gone well. Now, when I run "samba-tool dnsupdate --verbose" I can see references to the first DC that remain. Unfortunately, that DC no longer exists so I simply cannot demote it again. Following the instructions on the "Demote a Samba AD DC" page "Verifying The Demotion" section, I

Hi, I have searched here, and noticed some discussion lately on problems demoting a dc. In my case, all roles are on DC2, and DC1 & DC3 know that: root at DC1:/var/log/samba# samba-tool fsmo show InfrastructureMasterRole owner: CN=NTDS Settings,CN=DC2,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=samba,DC=company,DC=com RidAllocationMasterRole owner: CN=NTDS

Hi, I demoted a running domain controller by running the samba-tool demote command on the running system to be demoted and there's still some DNS entries for the old one kicking around. It's still listed under _msdcs and also _kerberos._udp and _ldap._tcp. Should I manually remove them? If so, is there a list of spots to look in for DNS entries of old DCs? Also, does the fact that

I have recently added a DC to my AD - Former DC was Samba 4.1.6, new DC is 4.3.11 (latest supported by Ubuntu). There's also a Window 2008 server I had tried to join as an AD - that server, wouldn't completely join and replicate to the 4.1.6 samba AD, and now it will not Un-join the AD "domain" either via dcpromo. This brings me to my actual question - Now that I have

Hello! I'm trying to remove a DC from our samba domain (samba 4.17.4). It was the primary controller (with FSMO roles), - I successfully transferred the roles to another DC.

What raises my doubts here is that I need to use the demoted server as a member server, and I would need to keep its name because it hosts the users'

Hi All, Does anyone know if there's a Samba 4 to Samba 4 migration process? Sounds weird, but it has a logical reason: I've a several-year-old S4 implementation, from an early Alpha (10 I think?) that hasn't been in the best of shape of late - when S4 4.0.0 arrived, I accidentally upgraded using my normal "git pull; ./configure; make; make install" procedure and instead of
