Distributing home directories

Distributed user accounts must have corresponding distributed home directories. You can make distributed home directories available with one of the following procedures:

• configure automount to automatically mount a distributed user's home directory via NFS wherever he or she logs in. For more information, see ``Distributing home directories with automount''.

• NFS-mount user home directories from a home directory server by ensuring that /etc/default/filesys is the same on all client hosts in your NIS domain.

• manually create user home directories on each machine in your NIS domain.
