Well, we purposely do all this hand-waving because it seems that everyone handles it differently. For a straight mounting of directories based on UID then you should be able to use standard NFS variable replacement (either using your own automount configuration or the IPA centralized automount). Are you seeing some SELinux problems? rob ___ Freeipa-users mailing list Freeipa-users@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/freeipa-users
