I didn't actually miss it, I was simply convinced "yes, that's what I'm
doing". Wasn't aware that "standalone" implies "not NT4-style".
After some more fiddling around, it seems I simply need to add "domain
logons = yes" to my smb.conf and that's it, classic upgrade seems to
work nicely.
Didn't do a proper check and will spent some more time with the lab
setup, but hostname, NetBIOS domain and DNS domain are correct and users
are transferred with their passwords, ldap binds and smbclient work nicely.
Thanks a lot.
Best regards
Patrick
