I have been searching the net for a while and I just cant find a proper answer to this.

Is it possible to add a user from a computer on the network to a group on another machine on the same network.

I would like a "cloned' permissions for a user on my main computer and the server, so that no other user should be able to access certain folders but those two this way I could access the remote files via NFS with only one local and one remote user.

I know it sounds awfully complicated, but I would really appreciate an answer.

BTW, if you also know how to to it ... it would be even better still :)

Cheers!

Might PAM LDAP(sys-auth/pam_ldap) suit your purpose?
