hi simon

right now.. I've gotten around knfsd ?? 
the machines are doing what I want it to do, like what rh-5.x used
to do with exported homes...

I just removed the symlink:
        was:  ln -s /.autofs/HomeServer/home /home
        now:  ln -s /.autofs/home /home

and all the /home/<users> are happy

these work..
  diff /net/server1/etc/passwd /net/homeserver/etc/passwd
  diff /home1/user/foo  /home2/user/foo

this fails due to knfds ??
  diff /net/home1server/home/user/foo  /net/home2server/home/user/foo
        ( a little inconvenient not to be able to use...but have work around )

server:/etc/export
        /       *.foo.com(ro)
        /home   *.foo.com(rw)   -- not I still do both exports on rh-6.0...

this is thru autofs...

have fun
