Recently, our department added a new NeXT to our network consisting of
several Suns and another NeXT.  When I installed the original NeXT, I
didn't make it a NetInfo server as it was the only one we had.  Now that
we have the new computer, I would like to make the 2 NeXTs share filesystems.
At minimum I need them to share the /Users and /LocalApps directories, but
if they could share everything, that would be best, so I wouldn't have to
install new things on 2 computers.  Is there a way to do this without
NetInfo, or should I change them both to NetInfo?  I also want to share
the user/password information between the 2 computers.  Any help would be
greatly appreciated.  

Thanks,
Carole Gitlin
