[Siglinux] Centralized User Profiles

[Vishal Doshi]

Hey Guys,

I'm a newbie to Linux.
I just wanted to know if it was possible to have centralized user profiles on Linux. I know NIS handles central authentication, but I'm looking to have any person log-on from any machine and have his/her settings come up. I'm not sure if NIS does that too.
If you guys know of anything, please let me know.
Thanks for all your help. You guys are doing a great job.
