I'm curious what you've looked at b/c there is a lot of info available. When I google 'debian networking' I get a bunch of (what looks to be) good stuff. As far as users having access to there home dirs from any machine, why not have them ssh into the server, where their home dirs are located. You can set up ssh to forward X packets (man ssh) and they can run a desktop on their local machine, but through the server.
