Hi,
Trying to add users one by one (preserving SID) is IMHO a lot harder
(you would probably need to ldbmodify the user record of each one) to
do, than fixing your samba3 install to have it classicupgraded.
Indeed. The only way to safely import a list of users who already have
SIDs is to migrate them to Samba 4.0's AD DC using one of the supported
migration tools.
These are 'samba-tool domain join dc' and 'samba-tool domain
classicupgrade'.
Perhaps I need to address why the "classicupgrade" did not work. I see now
that I did not pass the --dbdir option when running it before. I'll try
again.
If I could change the subject somewhat, I am also not clear on how to
configure SAMBA4 and the DNS server if my network has an existing DNS
server on another machine and I don't really want to move it. The DNS
server is a stock install of bind from the distro's repository:
bind-9.8.2-0.17.rc1.el6_4.4.x86_64
