Thank you for your answer.
I actually did not point out exactly enough what i want to do, sorry for that ...

I read these postings and also some sections in the samba howto and several descriptions on the net, but i understand all these in that way, that the samba server is reconfigured to use ldap and "stays" there. at the moment we are some time away from finally migrating all samba accounts, which are currently stored in smbpasswd, to ldap and it is no option to take down and reconfigure samba even for a short time. so what i in fact need is a way to get a snapshot of the current accounts and copy them into ldap, the samba server should/can/must not be touched (i mean start/stop/reconfigure etc.) in any way during this process.
can this be done ?

thanks in advance for any hints!

regards
  markus

Hi List!

we have about 1200 users in the "regular" user database of samba 2.2.8a
installation.
is it possible to move/migrate them all into ldap? i only found
descriptions on how to add new users to ldap.

        Yes it is. Check the archive of this list (2007 is enough),
we already discussed this subject this year a few times with good
tips and points about the migration.


thanks in advance for any hints!

        Kind regards,
