The file private/MACHINE.SID identifies the domain. When a samba
server is first started, it is created on the fly and must never be
changed again. This file has to be the same on the PDC and the BDC,
so the MACHINE.SID has to be copied from the PDC to the BDC.
The domain SID has to be the same on the PDC and the BDC. This used to
be stored in the file private/MACHINE.SID. This file is not created
anymore since Samba 2.2.5 or even earlier. Nowadays the domain SID is
stored in the file private/secrets.tdb. Simply copying the secrets.tdb
from the PDC to the BDC does not work, as the BDC would
generate a new SID for itself and override the domain SID with this
new BDC SID.</para>
<para>
To retrieve the domain SID from the PDC or an existing BDC and store it in the
secrets.tdb, execute 'net rpc getsid' on the BDC.
