Hi,
Yes, it can be done through NFS. First of all, the kernel must be
compiled with NFS filesystem support. Then, the machine which wants to
'share' the '/home' directory, for example, needs an entry in
'/etc/exports'. Finally, on the other machine you'll do something like:
mount -t nfs machine1:/home /mnt/machine1
Have fun,
bogdan
