hi ya....
why list users ???
why not just export all users ???
and import /home ?
home -fstype=nfs,soft,intr,blah,blah home:/home
just need to make sure home.fooo.com is up and running
99.99% of the time... if home: is a cluster....
magic....it should be fun project to slap together...
clusters are good for fileservers, webservers, emailservers ?
and otherwise syncing data across multiple machines
across the country is not too trivial...
have fun linuxing
