We're running a Debian Etch Server with Samba 3.0.24 as primary domain
controller for a XP dominated network. For various reasons, we're
migrating our server to a new machine running on Centos 5.4 (and Samba
3.0.33). Additionally, I decided to get rid of our messy LDAP setup,
as it is quite a pain to use and IMHO overkill for our small software
shop (~15 machines / users), so I've set up the new system to work
with tdbsam instead.
Wouldn't it be easier to simply convert your existing server from ldap
to tdbsam, then you can just set up the new server with the SAME domain
name, copy everything over to the new server, and flip a switch over the
weekend and noone would no the difference?
I wouldn't be able to tell you how to do the above, but if memory
serves, I've seen mention of it and I don't think its difficult to do..
Hi Charles.
I'd love to do that, but I'm really lost - could you (or others) could
give me some hints on how to achieve that? Especially _what_ to copy
exactely? I guess I have to use pdbedit export from ldapsam to tdbsam
and switch my Samba Server (on the old machine) to tdbsam. But after
that? How do I have to move on? Do my uid/gid/ etc. have to match on
both machines? Which files do I have to copy?
Thanks,
Dominik
