Topic: Password sync between 2 SME servers

[georges reich]

I have a server and gateway, let's call it GATE.
I have a file server, lte's call it FILES.
Both are running SME server 5.1.
GATE is domain master.
Domain logons are enabled.
Clients include W95, W98, NT4, W2K and redhats 6.1, 7.0 et 7.1.

I want users/groups to access the files on FILES.
I would like to not create/maintain the users on FILES, but use the ones configured in GATE.

I tried using the following two lines in smb.conf of FILES, but for some reason, it is not enough:
security = server
server password = GATE

How do I get the two servers to cooperate?
NFS is not on the list of preferred solutions.

Hi,

Did you try 'password server = GATE' instead of server password = GATE...?


ps. This is not syncyng your password files on both machines. It;s using machine 1 to authenticate users that would like to use machine 2.
