Like Marc already said - if you want to centralize this information,
you should make one of these machines an LDAP server and bind the
other to it. Netinfo is deprecated and any setups you build around
it will most likely break in Leopard (yes, even the local netinfo
databases are going away).

No, I have two machines and TWO NetInfo domains. Each machine has
a local domain,
and there is no root. That's what I want to create. I am tired of
doing everything
twice. I want to create the root domain and
nidump -r / / | niload <options>
as a starting point, such that the load makes the root domain
identical to the local
domain. I realize some tweaks will be needed, but first I have to
have something
to tweak on. The syntax offered in the man page for niload DOES
NOT WORK, nor did
any of the five to ten variations I tried.
I also tried making /var/db/netinfo/network.nidb an exact copy of
local using
cp but that did not work either. Must be the DB's name is hidden
inside of it
somewhere.
I appreciate your detailing of the correct properties for the
domains, but before
I can put those properties in, I have to have a domain to put them in.
