similar to: Cleanup after demoting an offline DC

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 am in the process of upgrading one single DC (internal DNS) to 4.8.12. I have followed the procedure of adding a new DC, transfert FSMO roles and demote the old DC. Everything gone right (except at the tranfert FSMO step where I faced the problem described here https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2017-August/210140.html , this bug subsists in 4.8.12 , maybe it has been fixed in later

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

Thanks for your answer Rowland. That's bad news since the new DC is now in production and I can't take the risk to break anything.

Following: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Demoting_a_Samba_AD_DC i've demoted and removed a DC. Seems all went as expected: root at vdcud1:~# samba-tool domain demote --server=vdcsv1.ad.fvg.lnf.it -U gaio Using vdcsv1.ad.fvg.lnf.it as partner server for the demotion Password for [LNFFVG\gaio]: Deactivating inbound replication Asking partner server vdcsv1.ad.fvg.lnf.it to synchronize

Hi, I demoted my PDC (DC1) forcefully, because replication (among others) wasn't working anymore due to hard disk failure and I was afraid of spending a lot of time on nothing. With DC1 offline I seized the FSMO roles on DC2 (4.2.5), restarted Samba, and found errors in the samba log due to the missing DC1. I removed the two DNS entries created according to this site:

Thank you for hint to this VBS script. In fact I alraedy saw it but I'm not too confident in my VB knowledge, so I didn't use that script, prefering rely on Samba command and shell scripts to work around issues. You spoke about SOA record which wasn't changed, same here. There is another DNS record I had to change: _ldap._tcp.pdc._msdcs.samba.domain.tld. I spoke about removing

Hi, I played with demote recently on a test AD domain composed with Samba version 4.3.0 and 4.3.1. I demoted all version 4.3.0. I was facing same issue as you. I written long mails here to explain how I managed that. My DNS looks clear now. Today I played with AD sites and I found in default sites all demoted DC. They weren't removed from DNS DB nor here. For now I have no idea how to get

I’m looking to replace a DC within a small network by adding a new DC and transferring FMSO roles, then demoting the old DC (https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Demoting_a_Samba_AD_DC). I am able to successfully deploy the new DC following directions in https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Joining_a_Samba_DC_to_an_Existing_Active_Directory. However, I am struggling with ID mappings – I’m not really

Hai, Ah, ok, wel, yeah, i was missing the NS on the SOA. This is imo a bug, i dont know it this is by design for samba, so maybe a samba dev can answere this since every joined DC should have a NS record on the SOA as far as i know, but thats my opinion and i can be wrong here.
