Hello all,
Have joined a new DC to an existing active directory consisting of a
sole DC. So, we now have two domain controllers, the original being
ad.DOMAIN.intranet (192.168.0.17), and the new one being
DOMAIN-ad.DOMAIN.intranet (192.168.0.11). The old DC is also the file
server - I'm aware this is strongly advised against. I want the new DC
to become the file server but can't find any instructions online on how
to do this - is it just simply following
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_File_Serving for the new DC and
reverse the instructions for the old DC, syncing everything up and sorted?
Servers are Debian 9 with 4.5.16-Debian, both are identical
software-wise (but definitely not hardware-wise!)
Many thanks!
