Update accounts from PDC e-smith to secondary servers
« on: November 08, 2001, 01:45:19 AM »
Hi,

It would be cool to have a panel that allows an e-smith server to capture user names and passwords from another e-smith functioning as a PDC.
I understand that this can be done through CRON jobs, but my Linux is pretty poor so I have not been able to figure it out (yet)

For example, I would want the seconday server(s) to copy across users accounts for domain access and SMB every hour. So I would need a command that would mount the PDC server as an available directory and then would copy both files across. Would it also require a service restart on the secondary server ?

Any advice would be appreciated.
