Often to upgrade to a new "Samba" Server or new version I will set up a
drive with a fresh install of OpenSuse. (I may do this at a separate locate
so upgrade isn't an option).
Then I will copy (or restore from a backup).
/srv (that is where all the data is)
/etc/samba
/etc/passwd
/etc/group

That seems to work fine, Except the GUI login
will usually not work.

Are there other files that should be transferred as well?
