Since about 1998 we have been running a samba PDC to serve student PC's in our high school and middle school. We also have had a backup server, normally not running samba, which rsyncs from the samba PDC several times per day. If we have a failure and needed to get the backup running, it is a simple script basically changing the IP address and activating samba on the backup server.
Now we want to turn the backup server into a domain member server which I assume means that it needs its own SID. So the question is how do I create a new SID? Is there a utility or should I uninstall/reinstall samba? Or is there another way? We still are simple and use smbpasswd.
