Hello!
I'm looking for a solution, how the data of a Samba server can be shared
between 2 Samba Servers (2.x and 3.0) during migration process. The new
environment will be done from scratch, new Hardware, etc.
Old Samba server/environment:
Samba 2.x
Authentication via W2k Server (security = DOMAIN)
Server has more than 100 netbios aliases
No POSIX-ACL's
Users and Groups are stored in /etc/{passwd,groups}
Access to shares via "valid users = @group" in smb.conf
other authorization done via file/directory rights
New Samba Server/environment:
Samba 3 as AD Member Server (security = ADS)
POSIX-ACLs
winbind
The new server is in a complete new environment, new IP-Network, new ADC
(W2k3), the AD will also be done from scratch (new users, new groups,
etc.). I can't switch the users from the old to the new environment
within one day, the migration time will be about 1 month. Are the any
solutions, how I can share the existing files between both servers or
how I can use one server working in both environments?
Thanks,
Andy
