I was needing to set up Sun Ray servers in two different cities and
needed the LDAP sync'd between the two sites.
Been working on finding a way to do this, and I started out by dusting
off the old SDS documentation. I was just gonna set up each site in a
separate FOG, then just configure SDS to replicate from a single master.
Then I thought what would happen if I set up the 2 sites (4 servers) in
the same FOG knowing multicast packets between sites would be dropped.
I've been doing some testing to emulate the environment. I don't know if
SRSS operates like this on purpose, but everything actually just works
like it should. The LDAP replicates just fine of course. The beautiful
thing is when you do a utgstatus, the server doesn't even see the
members of the other site. So the FOGs work like they should in each
location seeming independent of each other. (Just for fun I tested
utswitch to see if I could hop sites, and it works!)
From what I can tell there shouldn't be any issues setting up a FOG in
this manner, anyone know anything that would say otherwise?

the LDAP directory.
Basically, I need the user/token database across all servers the same,
but do not want 2 different sites to act as a FOG.
