You give me ideas on the alternative coz as you said it is not possible. Suppose to be I want the a particular user account's profiles, the same regardless where he/she login on a workstations (either Windows or Linux). As far I read some articles it loads faster when you first login on a new workstation (I dunno know if it really true as of the moment). At the same time backup of files on the server side. I use winbind and modify some configurations on the pam.d. I dunno have idea yet of Samba4 ldap. I bit confused on it, unless some will give idea on it. Do I need to setup ldap clients? and/or the correct configurations? coz in samba3 (as DC) you need it to pull out the data via TLS to make it secure.

I will try to use it, among those three if which is more efficient, pam_csync, nfs or pam_mount.
