After migration of an NT4 domain to Samba we find that when users log in they have a new profile. Since we cannot deal with this on all of the computers with all of the users we have had to stop the migration. I have searched through the archive and not been able to find any answers to this issue, I did find a relevant article though and apparently they didn't have an answer in 2002.

Hi, A few days ago PDC crashed and I setup a new PDC with the same domain name. I have recreated the user accounts but when the users login, windows xp clients create a new profile. Is there a way to make the windows clients use the old profiles? Thanks. -- Erol

Hi - I'm setting up a new Samba PDC here in a 30-person architectural office. The current PDC is running on an older computer and hasn't been updated in a while. The new PDC will be Samba 3.4.0 running on Ubuntu 9.10. We don't use roaming profiles. My question is this - is there a way to "seamlessly" migrate the desktops to the new PDC from the old one without

Hi, I have an old version of Suse runing a Samba. I will upgrade this box from Suse 9.3 -> Suse 11.3. I know that there are a lot of risk but my top fear is about Samba. This is a production server and network users authenticate with this server. We do not have roaming profile, but I know that if I install from scratch I lose my domain, SID number changes and I have to reconfigure all the

Hi, all: I'm using R 1.7.0 on WinXP under SDI mode. However, very often after I closed all R windows, my CPU usage was still 100%. By checking the task manager, I found there are one or several "Rgui.exe" still running and took all the CPU. I had to close them one by one manually. This happened to me with R 1.6.1, R 1.6.2 also and also on Win2K. Rememeber there was a

We have some database dos programs runing under Linux with dosemu on the client side connected to Linux server runing samba, and want to do register locks in a local directory mounted with smbmount. In samba 2.0 this was not possible (files become corrupted). Can samba 2.2 do the trick?. We don't want to use micro$oft lan manager for DOS. Any other options?. Thanks in advance Pietro

Hello, I try to move a Samba-PDC (3.0.24) from Solaris 2.8 to CentOS 4.4 with the guidance from: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/upgrades.html#id333969 (Replacing a Domain Controller) At the moment I am trying this in a test environment.

Hi, I've been in the process of attempting a transition from our current NT 4.0 PDC to Samba 3.0.4 on linux (Debian running the 2.4.18 kernel). I can get the smbd/nmbd up and running just fine and configure them by hand or with SWAT and the changes are saved. I've been following the HOWTO's and get stuck at the net rpc vampire step: I am able to join the linux machine, call it

Hi, I'd like to migrate Samba 3.0.24-6etch10 PDC running on a Debian server to a new Ubuntu server. I plan to install Samba 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.4 on the new server and then copy the files in /etc/samba and /var/lib/samba and copy the related Linux users in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. Will it work?

Hi, and thanks in advance for your support (sorry my english) Is there any documentation for migrating Samba 2.2 with LDAP and PDC suport to Samba3 with PDC and LDAPSAM? I try to explain the situation: Only one server running Mandrake 9.2 + Samba 2.2.8a with ldap support (from precompiled contrib); and I wish to migrate to Samba3+LDAPSAM.

Hi all, Our company is looking at moving premises some time next year, the plan at the moment is to have a new server room with all new servers set up at the new building prior to moving the workstations over. I'm wondering if anyone has done anything like this and what the best way to proceed is. We are using an LDAP backend. I am not completely averse to unix UIDs changing (although I

Yesterday I migrated a Samba server from one machine running Samba 3.0.13 (on Mandrake 10.0) to another running 3.0.20-3 (on Mandriva 2006). The contents of: /etc/samba/* (all the .conf files) /usr/local/samba/private/* (secrets.pdb, smbpasswd) were moved intact from one machine to the other, as was all of the user data. I even checked md5sums - no changes to any of the samba files. Then
