Should this be set on smbldap.conf file? If I do the command as you
suggest, the machine's local SID is going to be the domain's SID. Is
that something I should do?
Thanks,

Always cc to the list as well.
We have a domain with more than 100 users and we need to replace
our PDC.
The PDC main function is to authenticate our users to connect to
the shared
drive and to authenticate computer login. The PDC is running samba
with
openldap on Gentoo machine. I have two BDCs with ACL set to read
and write
only. It was set that way to make the syncing process easier. The
syncing
process is like a chain using slurpd. We plan to use "syncrepl"
later.
What is the best way to do to replace the PDC? I already have a
Gentoo
machine up and running. I copied over all the samba and openldap
files from
the old PDC to this new machine. I also exported the database by
running
the "slapcat -l" command. I am hesitant to start the slapd, slurpd
and
samba service as I am not so sure if I am doing the right thing.
Disconnect the network cable on the new machine to make sure you are
not interfering with the rest of the network.
Start slapd then use slapadd to add your ldap to the database. Use
slapcat to verify that all was added and the ldif looks correct. Then
start samba and see if the smbclient can connect to itself.
Is the old machine the same name as the new? How about the ipddress?
Are you using wins, lmhosts or dns for your clinets to find the pdc?
I will try your suggestion. We plan on using the same name on the
new machine and the same IP address as well. We are using WINS for
our client to find the PDC.
you must set on the new PDC the SID of the old PDC
see "net getlocalsid" and "net setlocalsid"
