Hey all, I needs some advice.
I've got 3 machines, all running 2.1.6:  prime, radford, and gizmo

prime is the big boy, where I'd like to run ftp, httpd, samba, mail, as
well as backup for named and radius. No user shell access.

gizmo will be primary server for radiusd and named, as well as a backup
mail exchanger, there will be no user shell access.

radford will be availiable for my users, as a shell server, and user web
server.


Currently, the plan is to keep /home on prime, and use nfs to mount it on
radford.  All 3 machines will need to be able to authenticate users, and 2
of them will need to keep track of each user's $HOME

What's the best way to go about doing this?  I really don't think that
manually updating /etc/passwd is an option, as it would have to be done
after every time a user changes his password.

There's lots of options, I'm wondering which offers the best security for
the convenience, and which is easiest to install.

Also, how do I restrict shell access to just the one machine?



Thanks in advanced for any info you can offer,

Troy
