you can run kamailio with usrloc in db only mode, then they share the 
same location database.

On the other hand, this is not going to work if the phones are behind 
symmetric nat. This is due to very restrictive rules in symmetric nat 
routers. In that case you have to think to a different platform 
architecture (e.g., don't share the location table, but forward call to 
the other server if the callee is not found locally).

Cheers,
Daniel
