Hello
Im not sure how to ask the question i need, but let me try:
Background:
SuSE 9.0
Samba from rpms: samba 3.0.3pre2-SuSE
Role: domain member server (winbind)
I am having a lot of trouble upgrading samba and I'm thinking of moving
to another server. I have found that if I move the winbindd_idmap.tdb
across, the AD / UID mappings are saved but would like to know:
a) Is this safe? (is there anything that will bomb out a few months down
the line?)
b) can this be done with LDAP instead (I know close to nothing of LDAP,
I have assumed it is for use as a PDC, but could it be used to store UID
mappings as well? How 'interesting' would this be to set up?)
Thanks,
H
