    Hi All,

    We have 4 Xservers all running 10.3.9.
    We have an identity crisis with 2 of those servers;
    The Unique “Server Signature” is somehow duplicated on both these Servers. So when our users logon via AFP or via TCP/IP to either server (and they are already logged on to the other server) they get their existing servers share mappings.

    Could anyone elaborate which file I can alter the Server signature address in order for the users to get the correct share points.

    Thanks

    Gareth

    The server signature is embedded within a configuration or preference file on the server (this maybe within the \etc folder). This setting allows each of our internal Xservers to remain separate from each other. It is what prevents our users from getting the same share points on our servers. for example when I login to Server A, I should get access to share point 1, 2 & 3. When I login to Server B I should get access to share point 4, 5 & 6. I login to server A and mount share points 1, 2 & 3. I try to login to server B but all i am presented with is share points 1, 2 & 3 again. This is because both server A and server B have the same unique server signature.
    We have encountered this problem previously and managed to change the unique server signature to resolve the problem – unfortunately I cannot remember which file i need to change. If anybody can shed a light on which file contains this information it would be much appreciated.
