Hi,

is it possible to share write locks amongst two samba servers?

We are experiencing performance issues all the time, because one
location (location A) is connected via VPN to the main location
(location B) and needs to access files hosted there on some samba shares.
Now loc A gets its own server, but still files hosted in B need to be
read/write accessed from A and vice versa.
It would be really nice to have all files and shares on both servers.
And when a file is locked on srv1 it's also locked on srv2.
Is something like that possible?

Thnx in advance,
Michael

        I hope this Wiki Page can help you. :)

Thnx a lot for your reply.
I'm a total newbie to clusters plus a linux beginner only.
Could u tell me how advanced/tricky this is?
I just setup three samba servers, cyrus imapd and two networks connected via vpn with OpenVPN, this is all I'm capable of yet :) Can I just use cluadmin to cluster two samba services, or would I need to cluster "whole machines"?Can't even try to get into it yet, since I have only RHEL WS 4 and this doesn't support cluadmin. Maybe I'll install Debian and try.

Also it seems as if this would eat up a lot of bandwidth performance at least in terms of latency.. when two smb servers are connected via a low bandwidth vpn only, I feel as if this wasn't an option. What do you say?

Thnx, greets,
Michael
