Hi,
Migrating existing settings should be possible but:
- You have to do it manually
- You have to be very careful with the SID number
If you have a spare machine to try and and a laptop, you could do some tests with existing accounts. As you already know, don't set up two machines as domain controllers of the same domain and same SID as they can clash.
Also, I need to have multiple shares setup as mapped drives dependant on user account and the group the user belongs to.
eBox doesn't provide that, you would have to modify the samba configuration, or more accurately, the templates we use to generate the samba configuration in order to configure that.
If you have taken a look at the eBox interface, what it offers is pretty simple:
- PDC/File sharing
- Users/Groups
- User home directory
- Group directories
- Global disk quota
Hope this helps,
Javi
