you haven't tried experimenting with backing up and restoring the
samba
password cache. look in /var/*/samba and /var/*/*/samba for files
related to the password cache to backup and restore.
If you use LDAP this problem goes away. If you're using tdb's then
moving the tdb's and using the same Samba revision should do it...IIRC

I'm using version 3.4.7 as a PDC on Ubuntu with 4 Windows 7 clients.
I can
restore smb.conf which gets the file shares and server configuration
back,
but I lose the trust relationship with the clients and I can't figure
out
how to get it back (short of completely clearing all the profiles and
dropping/adding to the domain.) I'm making the following assumptions:
- There must be some sort of signature for the Samba/OS
installation that
changes
- This signature must be recorded in Windows somewhere for it to
validate
the relationship (like known_hosts)
I've tried the following in just about every order you can imagine:
- Modifying/removing the profile registry entries in Windows
- Removing/restoring the user directory in Windows
- Removing/restoring the profile.v2 directory in Ubuntu
- Experimenting with various local policy settings in Windows
- Re-adding client to the domain
- Using smbpasswd to recreate the users
There must be something I can backup/change to retain/reestablish the
trust
relationship without having to scrap all the user profiles? Thanks in
advance - all my reading so far has been of little help.
