multiple namespaces



Sorry if this (undoubtably) has come up before.

We have two groups (call them red and blue) of machines,
each group in its own namespace.  (Why not one namespace?
To protect each group against misadventures in the namespace
of the other.)  The red machines need to occasionally access
the blue machines.

Simple add blue to the searchlist attribute of red's namespace
object.  Catch-22.  red doesn't have a namespace object for
blue.  Well, add one.  Gotcha!  red doesn't have a host object
for blue's server.  Well, add one first, blue|server.  Heh heh!
red doesn't have a namespace object for blue.  Sounds like zen,
if you have to ask, don't ask.

Can someone enumerate the steps?

Thanks,
