[Samba] Sysvol replication

Hi

I thinking about HA+DRBD, you can mount the partition with acl, 
user_xattr settings, I using this method for shares, this should work 
with the sysvol directory too?!

Btw,is it possible to store the PDC's *.tdb files on that kind of 
partition and when the PDC dies the BDC's HA mounts the 
shares/tdb/sysvol partitions and loads the correct smb.conf.
For me it make sense, since all data is available only for the active 
server. Of course you have to back up the tdb files with tdbbackup.

Regards, Robert
