[Samba] NT4 to Samba Migration

Yeri Swamy Fri, 06 Jun 2003 04:16:08 -0700

I dowloaded from samba.org samba-3.0alpha24.. I refered http://samba.org/~jht/NT4migration/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf chapter 31

it also mentioned in the how chapter 31 that it is a rough explanation
but i decided to follow this and started doing things as i explaned below

i looked google and samba mailing lists i did'nt see anything related to my problem anywhere

Trying to Migrate from NT4 to Samba but i am unsuccessful in doing that
Either no where it is mentioned what smb.conf parameters to be set..

I started doing this by refering to the above chapter 31

1)Created the BDC account in NT using Server Manager
 According to Howto i have not started Samba

2)
  #rpcclient NT4PDC -U Administrator%password
  rpcclient>lsaquery
  domain WORKGROUP has sid S-1-5-21-2005620710-1318861517-1539857752
  rpcclient>
3)
  #net getsid -S NT4PDC -w WORKGROUP -U Administrator%password
   i get the error getsid not found???
  but i contnued to next step
4)
   #net getlocalsid
   [2003/06/05 13:48:08, 0] utils/net.c:net_getlocalsid(388)
   Can't fetch domain SID for name: PRUTHVI

   i contnued :-( ...by setting local SID to above SID i got using
    #net setlocalsid S-1-5-21-2005620710-1318861517-1539857752

5)
 #net rpc join -S NT4PDC -w WORKGROUP -U Administrator%password
  Joined domain ITERNAL.

In the howto chapter 31 it is not mentioned whether we have to start winbindd?? or not???

Anyway i decided to start winbindd

#/etc/init.d/winbind start
Starting Winbind services:      [OK]

and contnued..
#wbinfo -t
checking the trust secret via RPC calls succeeded

6)
#net rpc vampire -S NT4PDC -UAdministrator%password

it printed lot of output on the screen
In that it says it has created users groups of NT

7) #pdbedit -L idmap uid range defined, non unix accounts enabled idmap uid range defined, non unix accounts enabled build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username Administrator with uid 2147483398 is not in unix passwd database! build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username Guest with uid 99 is not in unix passwd database! build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username NT4PDC$ with uid 0 is not in unix passwd database! build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username WORKGROUP03$ with uid 2 is not in unix passwd database! build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username WORKGROUP04 with uid 4 is not in unix passwd database! build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username WORKGROUP10$ with uid 6 is not in unix passwd database! build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username user1$ with uid 7 is not in unix passwd database! build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username user1 with uid 10

 i really don;t know what this means it is error/success
 According to howto now users are migrated

i have not started samba Yet...
i belive at this point users are not migrated

i don;t want to continue further according to howto.. till i am clear up until now everything is fine.

Do i have to start samba now??? so that it will start working or what do i have to do now??? what i am missing???

Can any one please help me in this

If you want any further info let me know

with best Regards
YS
