I have provisioned a new DC with Samba 4.18.5. This DC is intended to replace an
older one in my AD domain.
The old/current DC has a number of Group Policies set. Can I "rsync"
/var/lib/samba/sysvol/hprs.local/policies/ to my new
/var/lib/samba/sysvol/hprs.locl/Policies/ per
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/SysVol_replication_(DFS-R), or will I have to
manually create policies in the new DC?
If copying over the old one is OK, there are already two folders in
/var/lib/samba/sysvol/hprs.locl/Policies/ I'll have to avoid clobbering:
# ls
/var/lib/samba/sysvol/hprs.locl/Policies/\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9\}/
GPT.INI* MACHINE/ USER/
# ls
/var/lib/samba/sysvol/hprs.locl/Policies/\{6AC1786C-016F-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9\}/
GPT.INI* MACHINE/ USER/
Thanks --Mark
