It is prudent also to backup all data files on the server before attempting
to perform a major upgrade. Many administrators have experienced the consequences
of failure to take adequate precautions. So what is adequate? That is simple!
If data is lost during an upgrade or and update and it can not be restored
the precautions take were inadequate. If a backup was not needed, but was available,
precaution was on the side of the victor.

There are two basic modes of use of Samba versions prior to Samba-3. The first
does not use LDAP, the other does. Samba-1.9.x did not provide LDAP support.
Samba-2.x could be compiled with LDAP support.

The Samba 1.9.x &smb.conf; file may be found either in the <filename>/etc</filename>
directory or in <filename>/usr/local/samba/lib</filename>.
</para>
<para>
During the life of the Samba 2.x release the &smb.conf; file was relocated
on Linux systems to the <filename>/etc/samba</filename> directory where it
remains located also for Samba 3.0.x installations.
</para>
<para>
Samba 2.x introduced the secrets.tdb file that is also stored in the
<filename>/etc/samba</filename> directory, or in the <filename>/usr/local/samba/lib</filename>
directory sub-system.
</para>
<para>
It is important that both the &smb.conf; file and the <filename>secrets.tdb</filename> should
be backed up before attempting any upgrade. The <filename>secrets.tdb</filename> file is version
encoded and therefore a newer version may not work with an older version of Samba. A backup
means that it is always possible to revert a failed or problematic upgrade.
