I set the new domains SID to the old domain SID, but are you sure that this
is enough to solve the problem? The clients still start a new profile when
the users log in. I have also restored the old servers ldap database and
when I check users attributes I see rid, sambaPrimaryGroupSID, sambaSID. The
computer accounts also have sambaSID and sambaPrimaryGroupSID attributes. I
thought these attributes should be the same as previos ldap database so I
have changed these attributes to the values before even this doesnt help and
still workstations start a new empty profile.

On the previos PDC I have done group mappings for all groups, does group
mapping change anything about the SIDs? I did create my PDC with this
article: http://wiki.novell.com/index.php/OES_as_PDC . Can there be a
special situation regarding to this?

Thanks..

SIDs are used to encode passwords, determine file and directory
permissions... If the SID changes, roaming profiles stop working.

"man net" for more info (see "net getlocalsid" and "net setlocalsid"
specifically).

Hi,

A few days ago PDC crashed and I setup a new PDC with the same domain
name.
I have recreated the user accounts but when the users login, windows xp
clients create a new profile. Is there a way to make the windows clients
use
the old profiles?


Thanks.
