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.. On 2/6/07, ryan punt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Make sure the SID on your new PDC is the same as the SID on your old PDC. 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). >>> "Erol YILDIZ" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2/6/2007 9:02 AM >>> 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?
