I did not ruse the old tdb I recreated all of the users from scratch and moved their home directory data then chown their home directories to give correct owner and group of files. I do not create the  Samba users I have it set so when I create a new Linux user the Samba user is created. If it where the tdb wouldn't their be problems when logging in to an XP machine.

You re-created all Samba users?
I met same issue when I re-used passdb.tdb from old machine, because
old machine's SID and new machine's SID was not same.

Or to edit all users' SID manually, the issue will be solved, I think.
