Title: Make two remote locations look like one?
Post by: dilligaf on July 28, 2005, 07:14:41 PM

I have a need where I would like to have an SMEServer at two different locations, yet them to allow browsing of network and resources etc as if they were one in the same.
Each location has a static IP.
Is it something as simple as setting both SMEServers as the same workgroup, (and obviously the PC's) and then under Security/Local Networks add the second SMEServer External IP?
Any assistance greatly appreciated.
Dan

you can do a site to site vpn. this will allow all hosts on both networks to see/browse everything as if it were local.

AFAIK, you can't replicate the SME, i.e. have 2 SME's controlling the same domain. make a change on one and the change automatically updates the other.
