Greetings,
I currently have a NT4 Server running as the Primary Domain Controller (PDC)
on my windows based network.  The hardware that this is running on is
quite old and starting to come apart.

To address this, I have decided not to do AD yet, and defintely not do NT4.
I  have installed 6.2-release on a newer server, and would like to install
Samba on the machine.  Set it up as Backup Domain Controller and then
change its roll to Primary Domain Controller.  This is so I can get the
existing
security, accounts, etc from the existing domain to the new machine.


Anybody have a good tutorial or link ?  Google yielded lots of neat stuff,
but nothing that hit home on this situation.

thanks for any help,
Darryl
