We're thinking to switch from NFS to other network filesystem since NFS does not implement all Posix semantics (like locking) and some applications hang in these circumstances.
I particularly remember that first OpenOffice.org 2 releases were unable to work when user's home directory is NFS mounted. We had big problems with that in our classrooms. For the authentication side, we used the old simple Unix way, /etc/passwd+/etc/shadow since we at Ejercicios Resueltos had not a lot of users and they were relatively stable.
