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?
Wayne Hammond Performance Technology Systems Design About /etc/passwd and /etc/group, don't replace the files with a backup, get a list of the non system users/groups and ADD them to the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files on the new server. That is the step I'm trying to avoid. Curious why just copying wouldn't work.? Or as I stated is does work except for the GUI login, I wonder what's missing...? Also make sure there are not major changes on samba configuration
