Hopefully very easy question to answer. I am trying to migrate data of of a samba server that is using winbind joined to a windows domain to another box. What samba or winbind files do I need so that this will resolve to names rather than UID and GID. For example........ drwxr-x--- 1049 10926 10005 36864 May 15 11:46 Student
Thanks
-- Migrate what data exactly? Is winbindd/samba your domain controller or is it on a Active Directory Server?
Caveat is you don't need winbindd. If you using winbind with AD then save your *.tdb files. Depends on your situation totally. Kerberos cache come to mind also. You smb.conf also. Just to migrate user data none of the above is needed. This answer you ? ?. As far as I know UID and GID is the only way to inter operate with AD...

The situation I'm in is that this box is joining to a win2000 PDC using samba+winbind for setting permissions on files and dir with domain users/groups. When I do a ls -l I just see the uid or gid instead of the domainame+_user domainname+group which is causing samba not to know who owns the file.
Is winbind added to the appropriate fields in nsswitch.conf?
