I think you can use ldap/smb server to have all users log in to just one 
server, there is a package at  http://majen.net/smbldap/ that solves this 
problem. So try it.

Guys, 

I have 3 servers each with 15 Thin Clients plugged in. How do I sync all 3 
servers? That way, any user can log in to any of the 45 clients with their 
files and desktop. My current setup has limited them to only 1 server-15 
clients. Is there anyway we can sync them so their profile roams on all 3 
servers/45 clients?

Thanks

I think you can setup one server as a master. This will be the server
for a NIS-Domain. You export the /home directory with NFS.

The other two servers are clients to NIS and mount /home from the master
on /home.
