Hi list!
I set up a new Samba 3 PDC with ldap backend. In our network, there already exists an old samba 2.2.8 PDC with ldap backend. Now I have two PDC named DOMAIN1 and DOMAIN2. Because in our network, there are a lot of windows NT4 and W2k workstations that are loggin on to DOMAIN1, I don't want to join every workstation to DOMAIN2.
Is it possible to shut down DOMAIN1, and configure the new PDC DOMAIN2 as DOMAIN1 so the workstations don't have to join again btw wouldn't get new profiles? I migrated all workstation and user accounts to the new one, so every workstation and user has also access to the new PDC. Or exists any other method of migrating to the new PDC? The big problem is that I want to keep the profiles of every user.
---- I am a bit surprised by this question since it would seem that someone that has already set up LDAP on both samba 2.2x & 3 has a pretty good working knowledge of the differences in schema/attributes of the two and could probably slapcat their LDAP from the 2.2x version (machine accounts) - find & replace fix the changes and import them into the LDAP store for 3.0.x
Obviously the DOMAIN NAME, localSID, GID's etc will differ and those must also be fixed.
There is a section about conversion from 2.2x to 3.0.x in the how-to

I think you miss understood me. I still migrated the ldap entries and group entries. But I have the problem with the profiles. I don't want to use roaming profiles so If I join a workstation to the new DOMAIN, there will be created a new profile and I want to keep them. So I've got the idea of shutting down DOMAIN1 and configure the new samba 3 domain to DOMAIN1 and the workstations won't recognize if the PDC is the old samba2 or the new one. Or are there any profile migration scripts or anything else?
