similar to: Migrating Samba PDC from one server to another

I have the distribution Samba package 3.2.3 running under Ubuntu 8.10 Workstation, downloaded using Synaptics Package Manager. It is running as a PDC. On some of my Windows XP workstations, the Windows profiles appearing under System Properties >> Advanced >> User Profiles appear correct, in the form DOMAIN_NAME\USER_NAME. On others, however, they appear in the form

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? Thanks in advance! ----- -- Kent Tong Wicket tutorials freely available at

I have a domain with Samba 3 acting as PDC, and using LDAP (passdb backend = ldapsam). I now wanted to add a second Samba 3 machine as a simple file server. I get errors with getdomainsid and getlocalsid, so there is obviously still something wrong with my config. The PDC runs Samba 3.5.6 on Debian Squeeze. Sid queries return: # net getdomainsid SID for local machine MY_PDC_HOST is:

Hi. Today I upgraded samba from 3.0.34 to 3.4.4 without changing anything in smb.conf but with changing local and domain sid: old samba 1) net getdomainsid and getlocalsid new samba 2) net setdomainsid and setlocalsid to ones (both the same) from 1) after restarting samba I can't log into domain: XP says : domain controller unavailable ... I tried to rejoin domain - and I can ;) however

I used to be able to load printer drivers via "server properties". Now when I go in the printer drivers are listed and I can use the properties button but the Add/Remove buttons are greyed out. This is a Samba 3.0.0/2.4.2-SGI_XFS_1.0 box and I've tried both NT4sp6 and Win2003beta clients (both exhibit the same behaviour). I see the following in the log when I connect to

Good evening, Distro: ClearOS 6.3 (RHEL-derived with a distro-specific web configuration tool for samba) I'm only about 90% sure it's version 6.3. Samba version: 3.6.10-1.v6 Intended use: NT4-style PDC for Windows XP clients Issue: My distro's "add machine script" uses the output of "net getdomainsid" to help populate the new machine account's sambaSID field

I did not get this finished last summer, so decided to just wait and do it this summer. I have setup my new samba server and was trying to get some things tweaked to the way that I want them. I thought that I had asked this before and that I could do it, but it seems that it does not work. My new server is running as a domain server just like the old. It has the same domain name and I change

Hello, I recently noticed a problem on our PDC (samba 3.0.32 on SLES 10 SP2) which I kind of know how to solve after web research but I am unclear about the possible consequences for our domain and clients. The situation is this: Originally samba was set up on this machine to test. Back then its hostname was infrahostnew, so there is a SID for that NETBIOS name in secrets.tdb. When the PDC went

Hi Everyone, I was wondering I am setting up a BDC at another physically separate location on a different subnet, and I am currently working on what files I need to have copied between the computers and which need to be made on each server. The specific question I am dealing with is what TDB files I need to replicate filesystems between the two servers. Below is a list of what the files I

Hi! I am currently using Samba4 Alpha13 but I have not been able to change a users password. I curently can add a user using ldbadd and a ldif file but I would like to know the recommended way of changing a users password. It would be nice if it could be done from the adminstrator account so that you do not need to know the original password. Thanks for the help! MS

Hi Marc, We are working on building a Standalone Samba server on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

Louis is right, you should upgrade, but, in the meantime, try adding 'ntlm auth = yes' to your smb.conf, see if that helps. > > Also try running the following commands: > > net getlocalsid > > net getdomainsid > > Rowland > Yes they should upgrade, I totally agree. I've allready migrated samba3 domain to samba4 domain , but in this case the samba4 one is

Hi, For reasons best known to the IT admin before myself, we currently have a domain name of WARLOCK. I want to change this. We have about 15 WinXP Pro client machines on the domain as well as a few linux domain clients. A bit of reading shows that it should be as simple as doing a net getlocalsid, making the change, followed by a net setlocalsid. I started doing this when I noticed something

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. My real problem is that I must use ldap because I also use

I am trying to change the localSID for a SAMBA server, however I am unable to. I have tried the command "net setlocalsid" to no avail. To troubleshoot I have also stopped the smbd and nmbd services, but this did not help.
