Hi Satyajit

re 1. sure, this is expected behaviour. Admin from Moodle1 is considered as a normal remote user at Moodle2. We can not blindly follow the roles assigned at a remote peer at our local server for obvious security reasons. If you are sure who the remote user is and that his account is adequately protected (strong password, https etc), you can assign them as your own site administrator manually. That is, the admin at Moodle2 has to manually assign a remote user from Moodle1 as another local admin.

re 2. sure, this is expected behaviour again. Please read the documentation regarding roles and contexts. The capability "moodle/site:mnetlogintoremote" is checked at the level of the system context while the teacher role is typically assigned at lower levels (course contexts). What you probably want is to create a new role called "Roaming user", set Allow for just the capability (leaving all the others unset) and globally assign this role to all your colleagues. Or, if you want to allow all your users to roam, set this capability for Authenticated user role.
