I've done the net rpc vampire and gotten all the user and machine

problem I'm having is switching the desktops, and keeping the
(non-roaming) profiles.
Which backend are you using?


I'd like to have it so everyone reboots their computer after the Samba
switch over, and then have it so they can just log in as usual. Have the
Samba PDC authenticate them and they get their (non-roaming) profile
load up.

However, I've found the user is unable to log in when the NT4 PDC is
turned off and the Samba one turned on (no longer BDC of course).

I had the same problem, the passwords didn't get transfered with vampire.
I manually entered the passwords into the samba server using the smbldap-tools and then the user could log in.


After we were able to get the user logged in, the profile changed upon login. I am not sure but this may be how it is supposed to operate or the best it can do. If I understand the scenario you were shooting for, this is also what we were expecting or hoping for.

Hopefully someone here can either confirm or deny that this is the way it is, because we have put in a serious amount of head banging and hair pulling also.

 We had the system setup for local profiles.
 logon path=



Am I missing something here, or is this just not the way it works?


I've checked the domain SID on both the Samba and the NT server and they
appear to be the same. I would have figured this was the problem for
sure.


I've been spinning my wheels on this far to long, so -any- help would be appreciated.
