B'jour,

>From Samba on machine A to Samba+LDAP on machine B, I could avoid to
add the clients to the new domain with some care in migrating from
server A to server B. Care consisted in keeping the same SSID on both
Samba (forcing B to use SSID of A) and keeping the same user name and
user ID and SSID for th emachine accounts.

Good luck,

Olivier
