Hello,

I'm about to install SAMBA in a HA (High Avalibility) solution with Solaris
2.6 and First Watch.
I have two SAMBA servers that normally runs on two machines, in case of a
failure of one of the machine the other machine is supposed to take over
the failed machine's services. Also the IP adress is moved (the machine
will now have multiple IP adresses (on the same logical net)).
So what I want to do is to run two SAMBA-servers with diffrent
configuration on one machine.

Is this possible?

Must I run the servers on diffrent portnumbers?
If I have to change one of the servers portnumber how do I do with my NT4
clients ??
My clients are configured to access both of the SAMBA-servers and need to
do this also in a case of a failure.

Suggestions?

Regards,

Henrik
