i have *not* done anything like this yet. therefore, take everything
i say with a pound of salt.
1. you *could* share the samba-B share directories via NFS and
mount them on samba-A somewhere. just mount the whole
samba-B filesystem on samba-A. does that work? i've done double
indirection mounting like this on my own boxes, but frankly, not
with samba-anything... so it's just an idea.
2. alternatively, you could just do rsync of /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow,
/etc/samba/smbpasswd, /etc/samba/smbusers and then restart
the smb daemon. those are on a mandrake linux system. the
locations and filenames may vary if you're not on mandrake.
3. and there's probably some other complicated system using
winbind, openldap or some sort of proxy PAM :). but i *really*
don't know anything about that and am waiting for someone else
to discuss that. heh, when i mention that, it's only to get someone
else who actually knows how that works to discuss it :).

There are only two kinds of scientific theories: those that are
demonstrably false, and those that are not yet demonstrably false.
