synchronization uid and gid in the local network
 
i want to synchronize my local networds uids and gids on the different computers
1) i forget advantages of this operation.can you remember me :) ? (i have ssh,samba,qmail servicies)
2) when i changed uid and gid in /etc/passwd and /etc/group by chown,then all of folders and files bacame no accessable.
3)will i be a BILL user if i connect to computer1 from computer2 by ssh as PETER (i have user PETER with gid=1050 uid=100 on one computer1 and BILL 1050:100 on another - computer2

iirc, the only(?) tool that really needs identical uid/gid on multiple machines is NFS.
If you're not using this, don't worry.
Regardless of which user you are on machine A, you can login as any (other) user on machine B.

yes i know, i have this... but i dont want to write
Code:
user1@machineA$ssh user2@machineB
cause if i write ssh machineB, then it asks password for none-exsist user1 on machineB

i want:
Code:
user1@machineA$ssh machineB
plz insert passwd for user2 on this machine
