if you use mixed-mode (incl. PDC emulator) you should be able to
continue running samba with security = domain

a member server does not contain a SID-backend. do you mean
SID2UID-mappings? which IDMAP backend do you use?
may be you can post your results after you migrated successfully?!?!

Hi,
I've got an NT4.0 domain that I'm planning to upgrade
to Active Directory.
I've got a couple of Samba member servers in the
domain, various versions above 3.0.
So I have two questions:
1. Are there any gotchas with this scenario or will
the Samba clients
just keep working as NT4-esque clients.
2. Is it possible to "upgrade" a Samba member server
to be an Active
Directory client whilst retaining the user entries for
file shares etc.
(i.e. so the SIDs still match).
Thanks in advance for any help,
Leon...
