Three possible viable approaches:
1) TDB conversion approach. Read in TDB dump out LDIF (one-way)
- samr.ldb: from tdbsam/smbpasswd, account_policy.tdb, secrets.tdb, group_mapping.tdb
- registry.ldb: from registry.tdb
- wins.ldif: from wins.tdb/wins.dat
- smb.conf/ea's: generated from the old smb.conf + share_info.tdb
- winbind.ldif: from winbindd_idmap.tdb (custom file format, not used
by samba4 yet as it doesn't
have Winbind yet)
(one-way upgrades can be done by using ldbsearch -a on these dynamically
generated ldb's)
Since TDB's are local, there isn't much point in writing back backwards
compatible data.
2) samr "mapping" backend (alternative for samr.ldb) (two-way)
This would allow users to keep mixed domains containing Samba3 and Samba4.
3) The vampire way of doing things (one-way)
- samba3 pidl backend
- Samba4 vampire + server side samsync support in Samba3
- unixinfo (\unixinfo)
- in Samba4 (client side)
- in Samba3 (server side)
- winsrepl (thru seperate pipe?)
- enum/add shares (\srvsvc)
- enum/add registry (\winreg)
- enum/add printers (\winreg, perhaps also \spoolss(?))
- convert smb.conf (using Jerry's registry hack)
(going with a combination of 1 and 2)
ldb mapping backend:
- do search in new and old (mapped) backend and merge results?
Upgrade process:
- take libdir & smb.conf
- read various tdb files / old smb.conf
- write new smb.conf (ejs?)
- list of parameters to keep.. generate some of the others
- add generated LDIF (ejs?)
