Greetings everyone, I have several Linux machines running on my home network. At this point every user has their own home directory on each machine and would need to transfer files from one home to another to get them on the other machine. What I want to do, but don't know how to do, is have the home directories of all the users be hosted on the main server so no matter which machine they log in from, they will have access to their files. I would guess that I would need some sort of fall back if the server were to be down for one reason or another, but this sort of setup would allow me to easily backup people's information onto cd's by just having to back up the /home on the server.
Thinking about this, I would probably need to centralize the password and user information as well, and that would definitely need a fall back so that users could log onto the local machine even if the server was down for one reason or another. Could someone provide some helpful advice or direct me to a location with instructions on doing this. Oh, one of the machines is running Mandrake 9.1 (I thought I would check it out and find I am really liking it) the others including the server are on RH 8.0.
