Well, limitations are two 2Mb DSL lines and big scanned documents by 10 users on both sides. I have already talked to the customer, and agreed that "normal" users have only create rights on the share and one sysadmin can delete files. It was no problem for him to do deletions on both sides, as it will almost never occur. > But if people only have read access to the other groups documents, then > the point of shared areas become less and less valid I suppose? The point of the shared area is to have a full remote backup, because the data is really important. The data is for archiving only, so if a user requests a archived document during the daytime, he can read the copy on the local server instead of reading it through the DSL line. Same is for fast storing the data that is available the next day on the other side after the sync. In this situation there is no real "master" location. Both locations are equal. One question, can I sync both ways the same time or has the second sync wait for the first and if it has, how to time this? -- Ariën Huisken Xilay Software _______________________________________________ tsl-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trustix.org/mailman/listinfo/tsl-discuss
