Because that way you get a uniform namespace like /home/<username> that
works even with pwd.
With a very new kernels (2.3.99-pre7.7 or later) you could also do it
like this:
# In auto.home
hpa /autofs/crimson/hpa
# In auto.autofs
crimson &:/export/home
... or if your namespace is really the same on every server ...
# auto.autofs
* &:/export/home
That way you avoid multiple NFS mounts to the same server. On older
kernels, you will get extra symlinks as a result (which you may or may
not care about), but on newer kernels you will get "bind" mounts and
thus you will still have a uniform namespace.
