I want to build 2 servers (both running samba) to provide file storage to 2 offices (approx 100 miles apart, linked via DSL) but all data writen to 1 server must also be saved to the other server. Both servers would also allow users to access the data via a VPN thus allowing 1 office with a failed server to access the other server via the vpn and still see the data from both offices. I currently have 1 server working but we want to add the second office to the system. (Currently 1 office has 10 users and the second office has 1 user connected via VPN ) but the second office will have 20 within 12 months and the first will have 35 soon )) Has anyone done anything like this ? I am currently reading & unpicking http://www.linux-ha.org/ to see what that gives me. Any clues/comments very welcome, even if you think I am mad ! Thanks Denis
