One thing you can do is to use multiple layers of indirection - have one map which maps from a /home directory (or whatever) onto the real homedir volumes which are themselves automounted from the appropriate hosts. You could just share a symlink farm, but with a map you should reduce network traffic. There's also nothing requiring you to have all homedirs under /home except conveninece. -- Mark Brown mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Trying to avoid grumpiness) http://www.tardis.ed.ac.uk/~broonie/ EUFS http://www.eusa.ed.ac.uk/societies/filmsoc/
