I have two separate subnets, two servers, and one domain. I want to serve half of my users from server A and half from server B, but all users would be able to log onto both subnets. The reason I want to separate them like this is so that the home directories and profiles will be split between the servers. Is it possible to serve the profiles and home dirs from a samba server the user doesn't authenticate with?

In other words, what I'd like is for a user on server A (controlling subnet A) to be able to log into a PC on subnet A and B and have his home dir and profile servered from server A. At the same time, I'd like different users to have the same ability using server B.

I think it is possible, but why would you do it? What you said sounds weird. Why do you want both servers to auth from ech other first? Normally you would only have server B auth from server A and then B. And server A auth from server A then B. Are you sure you don't want to replicate servers A & B's databases?

Is it possible to have two samba servers in two separate domains acting as PDCs authenticate against each other for logins? IE server A attempts to authenticate against B and then itself, and server B attempts to authenticate against A and then itself. Any help doing this would be very much appreciated.
