Our company will be collapsing the Windows NT domain and joining this to a 2000 Domain. The domains were also authenticating to a samba server. What are the ramifications in Samba configuration, if any?
Since this is new to us, we would like to gather as much information to make things easier.
What are some of the problems we will face ....
How can we avoid certain problems .....
Any good articles on this?
Very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

What kind of samba server? Windows, Linux, Unix?
Its probably just checking and/or changing the permissions to use the new domain.

Hello !
This is a Unix machine running Solaris 7.0.
People can log into the Unix machine using a windows like environment called Reflections. Other users on the network just use shares within Unix.I am aware of the smb.conf file that is configurable. I believe that the samba server is version2. I am not sure if samba 3 is required.
These are only a few concerns at this time and I am sure that there is more I havent thought about.
