I have inherited a Samba server and would like to migrate the installation to a new machine. We are using Samba as a PDC and my currrent worry is what users will see on their desktop (as well as other changes?) once they log on to the new server.
As a test I have logged on with my laptop (running WinXP virtually) and I get a completely blank desktop (with the exception of the trash can). Will users lose anything? I am unclear on this. The current/old samba config is posted below. It is using LDAP but the new config will not. Thank you very much.
