sasldb seems ill-suited for this purpose because you have 2 separate 
servers involved.  I suppose you could keep sasldb in sync on both servers 
with a cronjob or some other script that copies one to the other anytime 
there is a change.

Does that make sense?  Maybe I'm missing something in your concept.
