It seems so because you've copied machines/users accounts on the newer box. But i don't see in your migration that you've copied the secrets.tdb file. This one is really important because it contains the domain SID . So if you've only copied smbpasswd (in old format or the newer one in tdb format but that doesn't matter), that means you're running a new domain controller for a new domain ... usually i copy the whole /etc/samba dir from one machine to the newer one in such migration ... -- Fabian Arrotin <fabian.arrotin@xxxxxxxxxx> Solution ? echo '16i[q]sa[ln0=aln100%Pln100/snlbx]sbA0D4D465452snlbxq' | dc
