There were certain problems in the samba.schema file of the 3.0.6 release that went unnoticed until after the release. The SAMBA team quickly made available a good samba.schema file and incorporated it into the next release (3.0.7).

As far as I know, there should be no conversion necessary. If you were, however, as paranoid as I am you would first make sure you have a thourough backup of your current setup in case your had to roll back. Next, I would export the entire LDAP directory to an LDIF file for safekeeping. Then upgrade to 3.0.7 and everything should fly fine. If SAMBA refuses to function after the upgrade, first do a testparm, since some options have changed since 3.0.2. If SAMBA acts like the info in the directory is no good, clear out the entire directory. Verify the samba.schema is the one shipped with 3.0.7. Then import those LDIF files again. I cannot imagine a scenario in which an upgrade would fail after all of that, but of course.........
