What I want to do is have 2 Linux boxes acting as servers. I want users wanting the choice as to what machine to log into. I.e., have a server chooser app before kdm, etc. What I'm asking is that, how do I organise the files? When USER1 logs into LINUXSERV01 and then later on logs into LINUXSERV02 I want the user area to be the same. Do I need to create homes on both machines or can I have one that "follows" the user - something which I expect Linux to do. When I was at Uni, we could do this with the HP-UX server farm. I'm assuming Linux can do the same. I assume that the home area will be set up on one machine, say LINUXSERV01 and when you log in using LINUXSERV02 (because LINUXSERV01 might be running slower due to a number of users logged in, say) then LINUXSERV02 has to map to LINUXSERV01's home area. Is this a samba set up? - Having log ins authenticated on one machine?

I want to add another Linux server as part of the same domain. Is it possible to set it up so that if I logged onto either of them, either will authenticate... or do I have to set up users on the second machine seperately? What is the best way to take advantage of 2 Linux servers? (Apart from having apache, et al on 1 and file/samba, say on another) Kevin Jackson -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/ -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
