[Samba] Upgrading to Windows 2003 servers

[Mary Couture]

We have samba 2.2.12 running on Solaris 9.  Our PDC and BDC are windows 2000
servers running AD.  Our windows admin is ready to promote a new windows 2003
R2 server to a DC.  When she started DCPromo she received a warning message
about older versions of windows and non-windows systems including SAMBA might
not be able to communicate.  Our configuration with SAMBA is not restrictive.
Below is a copy of the smb.conf file running on one of the Solaris boxes.

 

Are there any issues with her promoting to the new servers.
