Hello. Since 3.6 has been EOLed I'd like to upgrade all my such Samba installations to 4.2. Right now I don't want to switch any of them to AD; I just want to keep running as I do now, but with a supported version. So far I've been able to upgrade some servers with the following steps: _ stop Samba; _ uninstall samba36; _ install samba42; _ replace "samba_enable" with "samba_server_enable" in /etc/rc.conf; _ rename /usr/local/etc/smb.conf to /usr/local/etc/smb4.conf; _ move /usr/local/etc/samba/smbpasswd to /var/db/samba4/private; _ restart Samba. This worked on servers running on smbpasswd backend; however I'm now trying on a PDC which uses LDAP as backend and it's not that easy. I also moved /usr/local/etc/samba/schannel_store.tdb and /usr/local/etc/samba/secrets.tdb to /var/db/samba4/private, but still I had no luck. Am I overseeing something obvious? Is there any howto for this? Does anything need to be done on the LDAP schema? Anything else? bye & Thanks av.
