[Samba] Re: netlogon initially fails after moving samba server to new machine.

2006-09-12 Thread David Mathog
Well this is even more interesting.  Parts of the profile are
not being saved back to the server, at least for existing
users.  For instance, 

1. login
2. change the start menu to classic view
3. rearrange the desktop
4. logout
5. login again
   start menu is back as it was and it isn't classic view any more.

Very strange.  Wipe the test profile on the server and the copy
on the client.  Login (creates a new one), ok, now changes are
being saved.

What is going on here???

Thanks,

The most probably cause of this is, that you have different domain SIDs
on the old and the new machine. Try to find it out with net getlocalsid
and compare the results. If they are different you need to reset the new
servers version to the olds with net setlocalsid SID.

Good Luck!

Hmm, good shot, they are different.  Where is this stored?  I copied
over all the configuration files that I could find and still
ended up with different SID values.

I found the problem, there were

/etc/samba/secrets.tdb
/usr/local/samba/private/secrets.tdb

but only the latter had been copied from the previous system.

I'll slink away quietly now.

Thanks for your help,
