Joining the new Samba4 Server to the old one replicates the Active Directory without a problem! After shutting down the old server, renaming the new server and restore smb.conf and krb5.conf i can access the new server with RSAT now. :-) What does not work is the dns-backend! :-( After the AD replication the DNS snap-in from RSAT does not work anymore. The join option "--dns-backend=none" is not available here (Samba4.0.0beta2 Zentyal package) Is there another way to get DNS working after the replication from the old server? I have also another question: What does the "renamedc" script do? When i start it, it always tells me that there are opened transactions and so it can't run. Because of this i simple change the hostname in /etc/hostname/ and /etc/hosts and run hostname -F /etc/hostname. After a restart all looks good so far. (but i haven't tested it very much) THX -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
