I've got a basic network concept question that I'm not quite sure of. This
involves spreading a network in multiple locations across multiple machines.
Here's my situation:
+-----+ +-----+ +-----+
| net | | net | | net |
+-----+ +-----+ +-----+
| | |
| | |
+--------+ +--------+ +--------+
| site 1 | | site 2 | | site 3 |
+--------+ +--------+ +--------+
/|\ /|\ /|\
Users 1 Users 2 Users 3
Each site is connected to the Internet ("net") via a slow link. The sites do
not have direct connections with each other. Each site has a Linux server
with Exim. Each site has a different set of users but all sites operate under
one domain. Each site's users changes a small amount periodically, and of
course their passwords change frequently.
Can someone explain to me how I'd go about linking all of these sites up for
mail. For example, if I have the domain's incoming mail server at Site 1, how
can I automagically send mail for users at site 3 down to site 3's server?
Would I have to have all users entered on site 1's server (hardly seems
practical)? Is there a way of doing this automatically only with bind? Any
whacks with a clue-bat and gentle pointing in the right direction would be
appreciated. TIA.
