About OD Replica

Hi.

Just a few question about OD Replica. Lets say that I have one server setup with OD Master in building 1, and I want to get Mac Mini server to building 2 what is 20km away. They will be on the same network. What will happen with home directories if I use the Mac Mini in building 2 as OD Replica and setup other computers in building 2 to use that for login, will the mini copy the home directories to its own hard drive, or just share them from main server in building 1?

Hello,


I am also curious as to how your final setup works. I need to set up this exact scenario: Two locations wtih a master and replica OD server. The home directories will be localized to the server that is local to the user, but when a user from site 'a' visits site 'b' they will need to be able to login to their network account to work.


All comments and advice are welcome.


Thanks!
