Re: [Samba] Samba 2.2.7a PDC with W2K SP3 clients - can't stay indomain

I've noted the same problem with 2.2.7a. So far I've not found any answer to the problem but simply chalked it down as Samba not capable of handling W2K SP3 clients. :-/ -- Jonas Öberg Systems administrator/webmaster, Department of Informatics, School of Economics and Commercial Law, Gothenburg University.

[Samba] Previous questions about Samba 3.0alpha PDC
In a few previous mails, I've asked questions about the PDC support in Samba 2.2.7a and 3.0alpha respectively, but have not received any replies. Perhaps there are better lists where one could ask such questions? -- Jonas Öberg Systems administrator/webmaster, Department of Informatics, School of Economics and Commercial Law, Gothenburg University.

[Samba] Rejoining domain with W2K
I have successfully installed Samba 2.2.7a as a PDC and has added the add user script to automatically create machine accounts. This worked very well when I added my client machine the first time. It successfully joined the domain and I was able to login as a user. I then removed the machine from the domain and put it in an unrelated workgroup and then tried to re-join the Samba domain. When I do that, using the same username (root) and password as when I first joined the domain, I get the following error: No mapping between account names and security IDs was done -- Jonas Öberg Systems administrator/webmaster, Department of Informatics, School of Economics and Commercial Law, Gothenburg University.

A followup to this question: I have successfully installed Samba 2.2.7a as a PDC and has added the add user script to automatically create machine accounts.

When I do that, using the same username (root) and password as when I first joined the domain, I get the following error: No mapping between account names and security IDs was done I have done some more testing with this and it would appear to me that the Windows 2000 SP3 client does not recognise the fact that an account already exists. When using the wizard, it says that A machine account for your computer could not be found in the domain (or something to that extent), even though it definitely does exist. With the CVS version of Samba (3.0alpha21), I'm not even able to get it to function as a PDC, so 2.2.7a is so far the closest thing I've come :-) -- Jonas Öberg Systems administrator/webmaster, Department of Informatics, School of Economics and Commercial Law, Gothenburg University.

[Samba] Migrating W2K AD to Samba?
After a frightening experience with W2K Active Directory, we've been considering an emergency migration to Samba. I've been looking at both 2.2.7 and the latest 3.0 alpha, but have found little information about migrating from W2K. Most information seems to be about Windows NT PDC. What I've tried is to pull the information from the AD tree with pwdump3 and put it in the smbpasswd file, with some small conversions. I've taken the domain SID and put it in DOMAIN.SID and created all the corresponding UNIX accounts for the computers. Unfortunately, the clients are still experiencing problems when logging into the moved domain. Even a level 10 log doesn't tell me anything specific about what's going on; it keeps repeating that the user authenticated correctly. But on the W2K client, the users only get the information that their password/username was incorrect. With 3.0 alpha, I also struggled a bit first with getting the group bits right to map Domain Users to the users unix group, but I think I got that one down. Does anyone have any information to share? I'm beginning to think that this kind of migration is not possible, and that we should burn for allowing the migration from Windows NT to Windows 2000 in the first place :-) -- Jonas Öberg Systems administrator/webmaster, Department of Informatics, School of Economics and Commercial Law, Gothenburg University.

Re: [Samba] Migrating W2K AD to Samba?
Hi Roberto, Jonas try to create a user for your win2k machines like this... Linux System Machine$ Samba System Machine replace Machine by your machine name... I'm sorry, I should have said that also the machine accounts have been added to smbpasswd and /etc/passwd like this; greger:/usr/local/samba# grep spiff098 private/smbpasswd /etc/passwd private/smbpasswd:spiff098$:5596:NO PASSWORD*:DED56631CAF126BE235AAFB73B492703:[W ]:LCT-3DF4FDA5: /etc/passwd:spiff098$:x:5596:100::/home/spiff098$:/bin/false -- Jonas Öberg Systems administrator/webmaster, Department of Informatics, School of Economics and Commercial Law, Gothenburg University.
