hi. I'm planning to setup a multiuser system for our developers in the
office. Basically, we will have an NFS server exporting /home.
Now, is it more reliable to NFS mount /home on very client machine, or use
automounter to automount each users directory? My concerns are:

1) does one method or the other need more nfsd's running?
2) Is one more reliable as far as client machines crashing and causing the
server to hang?

thanks for any advice.
