Re: [Samba] Samba Domain Rename
Hi Ricky, Thanks for sharing your opinion @samba Technical – can you please give me a final Yes or No on this because no one knows more than you guys Thanks, Sandeep *From:* Ricky Nance [mailto:ricky.na...@gmail.com] *Sent:* 02 July 2013 20:37 *To:* Sandeep Kumar *Cc:* Frostyfrog; Michael Wood; Samba Technical; samba@lists.samba.org *Subject:* Re: [Samba] Samba Domain Rename Like Michael said, samba 4 as an AD DC would probably not be happy if you just change the 'workgroup = ' line in your smb.conf (as a matter of fact, that line shouldn't exist in a AD DC setup in my opinion) the domain is more than likely embedded very deep inside of the LDB's, and I would strongly recommend against changing those, however, with sufficient backups and lots of luck you might be successful in changing it (look into ldbsearch and ldbedit if you are really REALLY brave). I think even changing every instance in the LDB's however will still not work, as during provision the machine joins itself to the domain (yes it joins itself to itself if I recall right). I would try to avoid this at all costs, but if you must do it, starting over may be your best option.

Re: [Samba] Samba Domain Rename
Hi Michael/Frosty, Thanks for your quick response @ developers - I am using samba 4 domain on centos 6 but for some reason i have to rename the domain Is it possible?, if yes then can you please provide steps to accomplish this Second, do i need to unjoin and rejoin the existing domain client machines Looking forward to your quick response... Thanks, Sandeep *From:* Michael Wood [mailto:esiot...@gmail.com] *Sent:* 02 July 2013 14:22 *To:* Frostyfrog *Cc:* Sandeep Kumar; samba@lists.samba.org *Subject:* Re: [Samba] Samba Domain Rename If Sandeep is running Samba 4 as an Active Directory domain controller, then I very much doubt that just editing the workgroup setting in smb.conf will fix it. There are e.g. files in the samba private directory named after the domain and also containing the name of the domain. I don't know if there's a straightforward way of renaming the domain. I suspect there isn't. Sandeep, if you don't get a good answer here, you could try getting the attention of one of the Samba developers on the IRC channel, perhaps.
