I relatively recently implemented Samba 3.026a (Solaris PDC)    I then
moved the PDC role to another machine.  On the new pdc  I 1st grabbed
the domain SID

        newpdc# net rpc getsid -S oldpdc
        Storing SID ------------------for Domain MYDOMAIN in secrets.tdb
        newpdc#

and then updated the smb.conf file on each machine to convert the PDC
to member server and vice versa.

If I ran the "net getlocalsid" command on the old PDC prior to the
migration, it would return the SID for the domain.

        oldpdc #  net getlocalsid MYDOMAIN

        SID for domain MYDOMAIN is:  S-1----------------------99

        oldpdc#



If I run "get getlocalsid"  on the new PDC I get
        
        newpdc#  net getlocalsid

        [2007/11/01 14:52:55, 0] utils/net.c:net_getlocalsid(622)

          Can't fetch domain SID for name: NEWPDC

        newpdc #


However explicity specifying the domain name seems OK

        newpdc#  net getlocalsid MYDOMAIN

        SID for domain MYDOMAIN is:  S-1----------------------99


As far as I can tell everything is working OK.   But did I mis a step
in the change over?

Thanks
