Not really, much of this is site and preference specific. For example, you need to decide what form you want for the home directory paths to be. Essentially, this means that if you have or expect to have at some future time, several home directory servers, then do you want (and have you got procedures in place to maintain the user account info) your home directories to be /home/<server name> or /export/home/<server> or some other variation and perform a single automount for a all users of a given server or use a path independent of server and perform an automount for every individual user. Or some other entirely different approach. Until you decide what you want to use for the home directory paths you can't really do anything.
