I followed the documentation concerning migration of NT4 PDC to Samba3. I set up the official release of Samba 3 on Red Hat Linux 7.3 and configured it as recommended in the documentation, joined the domain and then ran the net rpc vampire command. I did not do anything else. Now, this part of the documentation is unclear to me and I quote:
"It is possible to migrate all account settings from an MS Windows NT4 domain to Samba-3. Before attempting to migrate user and group accounts, it is STRONGLY advised to create in Samba-3 the groups that are present on the MS Windows NT4 domain AND to map them to suitable UNIX/Linux groups. By following this simple advice, all user and group attributes should migrate painlessly." What is meant by creating groups in Samba 3? I tried searching the documentation. I could locate creating users, but couldnt locate creating groups in Samba. Could this mean Unix to NT group mapping using smbgroupedit? Appreciate responses.
