I have my nfs shares set-up to automount to /home/nfs4/<username>
and then that directory name is used in the /etc/passwd file. What i'd like to do is have it use /home/<username> in the event it can't see the nfs server. it seems like some automount trickery might be possible if, for example, nfs mount didn't work it would actually mount /home/<username> on /home/nfs4/<username>. Haven't found a way to do this, probably because it's a horrible hack, or not possible and I should probably be trying to do this some other way. Any suggestions ? Thank you, Brian
