Already tested manually. The only problem is the key distribution. Works like a breeze. I wouls also suggest to check if OpenAFS would be better choice than nfsv4-krb5. In OpenAFS the homes are mounted each with private kerberization, not like in nfsv4 where the kerberized mount is done at partition level. I think that in OpenAFS once an user is logged and the homedir mounted, it is impossible that he can access other's homes.
