I have a Samba 3.6 PDC (ClearOS) that I want to migrate to Sernet Samba
4.2 AD on a Centos7-arm box.
So I am reading:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Migrating_a_Samba_NT4_domain_to_a_Samba_AD_domain_%28classic_upgrade%29
And trying to figure out what files I need. Note this is a totally NEW
box, I need to copy over the needed files. So do I move all of the .tdb
files? There are actually 2 secrets.tdb:
/var/clearos/framework/tmp/secrets.tdb
/var/lib/samba/private/secrets.tdb
Do I need to stop smb and nmb services on the old server before copying
the files? Going to rsync the files over.
What about the conf files in /etc/samba? Do I need my old smb.conf?
Security on the old system is users (unix login, never really liked
that). Can I change that and to what?
I assume I need to have BIND set up first. And DHCPD?
Definitely need to fix some things on the box before I try the upgrade.
And if I get it wrong the first time, that is not a problem. I will be
trying this a number of times anyway, as Centos7-arm is not even up to
beta yet. But the beta could go fast once they get the build process
working.
