<title>Migrating Samba-3 to a New Server</title>
<para>
+ The two most likely candidates for replacement of a server are
+ domain member servers and domain controllers. Each needs to be
+ handled slightly differently.

+ <title>Replacing a Domain Member Server</title>
+
+ <para>
+ Replacement of a domain member server (DMS) should be done
+ using the same procedure as outlined in <link linkend="unixclients"/>.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Usually the new server will be introduced with a temporary name. After
+ the old server data has been migrated to the new server it is customary
+ that the new server will be renamed to that of the old server. This will
+ change its SID and will necessitate re-joining to the domain.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Following a change of hostname (netbios name) it is a good idea on all servers to
+ shutdown the Samba <command>smbd, nmbd</command> and <command>winbindd</command>
+ services, delete the <filename>wins.dat</filename> and <filename>browse.dat</filename>
+ files, then restart Samba. This will ensure that the old name and IP address
+ information is no longer able to interfere with name to IP address resolution.
+ If this is not done, there can be temporary name resolution problems. These
+ problems usually clear within 45 minutes of a name change, but can persist for
+ a longer period of time.
