[Samba] How to move DC to other Server

[Andrew Bartlett]

In that case, just move all the Samba files once the first server is
offline.

All the join/demote games suggested here are more likely to cause you
trouble than help, due to a bug in our RID Set management:

None of Samba's databases are arch-specific, so if the hostname and IP
are the same, just restore the databases and config files and it should
just carry on.
