Hi All,
I haven't received a response from anyone on this - Can anyone help?
Is there any way to have samba simply use the current records stored in
/var/lib/samba/ if the password server(s) is unavailable?
Have you already tried these parameters?
password server = server1, server2
winbind offline logon = Yes

Thanks for the reply's.
Is there anyway to have Samba just read whatever is in the database for
the UID/GID map if the DC is not available? From my testing as soon as
the DC is unavailable for any reason the ability to login ceases.
Am I right in thining that by adding 2 x "kdc" selections to
/etc/krb5.cfg I'm setting the 2 DC's to be used for lookups?

Everything should be looked up by DNS. There's no notion of a PDC/BDC

Hi All,
I haven't been able to track down any info on this so would be
appreciative of any input. Links to any info on this would also be
appreciated.
Samba 3.2.5, Debian 5.0
Question 1;
Is there any way of setting up a "backup" windows domain controller in
the samba config? so if they main dc is not available, it automatically
queries the backup?
Question 2;
What is the best way to back up the UID/GID map? and can it be easily
imported back to a new install if the server fails for any reason.
In addition to backing up /var/lib/samba/*, consider a consistent idmap
backend, e.g.
idmap backend = rid:DOMAIN=10000-20000 (or whatever numbers you choose)

Thanks
