-<para>
-There are 3 major Site Types:
-</para>
-
-<para><programlisting>
-&lt;= 50 Users
-Want simple conversion with NO pain
-50 - 250 Users
-Want new features, can manage some in-house complexity
-Large Scale Sites
-Solution / Implementation MUST scale well, complex needs
-Cross departmental decision process
-Local expertise in most areas
-Planning for Success
-Decide which approach is needed - 3 Choices
-Simple Conversion (total replacement)
-Upgraded Conversion (could be one of integration)
-Complete Redesign (completely new solution)
-Take sufficient time
-Avoid Panic
-Test ALL assumptions
-Test full roll-out program, including workstation deployment
-Simple Conversion
-Make use of minimal OS specific features
-Can use No Unix Accounts Option
-Suck all accounts from NT4 into Samba-3
-Make least number of operational changes
-Take least amount of time to migrate
-Live versus Isolated Conversion
-Integrate Samba-3 then migrate while users are active
-Change of control (ie: swap out)
-Upgraded Conversion
-Translate NT4 features to new host OS features
-Copy and improve
-Old environment to Samba-3
-Make progressive improvements
-Minimise user impact
-Macimise functionality
-Take advantage of lower maintenance opportunity
-Complete Network Redesign
-Decide
-Authentication Regime (database locate and access)
-Desktop Management Methods
-Better Control of Desktops / Users
-Identify Needs for:
-Manageability, Scalability, Security, Availability
-Samba Implementation Choices
-Authentication database back end
-Winbind (external Samba or NT4/200x server)
-Can use pam_mkhomedir.so to auto-create home dirs
-External server could use Active Directory or NT4 Domain
-Database type
-smbpasswd, tdbsam, ldapsam, MySQLsam
-With local accounts or with No Unix Accounts (NUA option)
-Samba Implementation Choice - II
-Access Control Points
-On the Share itself (Use NT4 Server Manager)
-On the file system
-Unix permissions on files and directories
-Posix ACLs enablement in file system?
-Through Samba share parameters
-Not recommended - except as only resort
-Samba Implementation Choice - III
-Policies (migrate or create new ones)
-Group Policy Editor (NT4)
-Watch out for Tattoo effect
-User and Group Profiles
-Platform specific so use platform tool to change from a Local to a Roaming profile
-Can use new profiles tool to change SIDs (NTUser.DAT)
-Logon Scripts (Know how they work)
-Samba Implementation Choices - IV
-User and Group mapping to Unix/Linux
-username map facility may be needed
-Use smbgroupedit to connect NT4 groups to Unix groups
-Use pdbedit to set/change user configuration
-NOTE:
-If migrating to LDAP back end it may be easier to dump initial LDAP database to LDIF, then edit, then reload into LDAP
-Samba Implementation Choices - V
-OS specific scripts / programs may be needed
-Add / delete Users
-Note OS limits on size of name (Linux 8 chars)
-NT4 up to 254 chars
-Add / delete machines
-Applied only to domain members (note up to 16 chars)
-Add / delete Groups
-Note OS limits on size and nature
-Linux limit is 16 char, no spaces and no upper case chars (groupadd)
-Migration Tools
-Domain Control (NT4 Style)
-Profiles, Policies, Access Controls, Security
-Migration Tools
-Samba: net, rpcclient, smbpasswd, pdbedit, smbgroupedit, profiles
-Windows: NT4 Domain User Manager, Server Manager (NEXUS)
-Authentication
-New SAM back end (smbpasswd, tdbsam, ldapsam, mysqlsam)
-With of without Unix Accounts (NUA)
