I, not only have a separate /home directory but, if the Hard Drive is large
enough, will create things, like /bighome, /oldhome (just before installing
a new Release), as well other variations, to handle the "Issue de jour".

Directories can only be symlinked. But you might be interested in mount
instead, especially the --bind option.

One option is to make /home on the server an NFS share, and mount it
as /home on the clients. Then you just have to make sure the user
IDs on the clients are the same as on the servers -- if you have more
than a few users, this is a good application for NIS.
This is precisely how the compu

That is a possibility. NFS is another

So that solution won't work.
