[Samba] NT PDC to Samba PDC migration

Hi all,

I read a few posts a while back from people who were trying to get this
done.

Has anyone succeeded in doing a transparent (or an
as-close-to-as-possible) migration of an NT4 PDC to a Samba PDC?

I know it entails stuff like snatching the passwords with pwdump or the
like, and importing them into smbpasswd/LDAP, and toying around with
RID's/SID's for the new PDC to make it look just like the old PDC.

I also remember there were issues with existing roaming profiles.

Can anyone offer refreshers?

Best

Diego
