    Hello Fellow Admins,
     
    I have an HP N4000 running 11.x and an HP L2000 running the same OS. One is
    our production server and the other is our testing/backup/DR server.
    Unfortunately, I am only able to update the db info and system info on it
    once a month. Part of my problem is that I have not been copying over the
    passwd, group, and /tcb files from one system to the other. Would copying
    these over create any problems for me when users go to log into the other
    side? Is there any reason I can't just copy these files/dirs from one
    machine to the other and expect the accounts to be available from one side
    to the other? I need to be able to synchronize the accounts between hosts
    and both systems are trusted systems. And no, we cannot use NIS or NIS+ in
    our environment. Any ideas/suggestions??
