Yes, if you want separate home dirs on each system, you could configure /etc/pam.d/system-auth on the client system to user PAM's "pam_mkhomdir.so" module. > 2) I have 2 Linux Servers named A and B: A is running OpenLdap, B is not > but using OpenLdap in A server for Authentication.

Yes, you can export /home on A to B using either NFS or AFS: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/custom-guide/ http://www.openafs.org/ I believe that both are available in the default configuration of Red Hat Linux. -- Psyche-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
