Wouldn't it be easier to use to autofs to mount user home directories from your nfs server? If you're using LDAP or NIS and have exported the auto_home/auto.home map and updated /etc/nsswitch.conf on the client then it should just work.

Dear All

I am going to run SRS on RHEL with full desktop. Is it possible to create
user's home directory on NFS mounted NAS Storage.
If it is possible then how it should be automatically mounted for all
users.Please help.

I run SRS on RHEL with NFS. But I just export a big /nfs (from y fileserver) and mount it on RHEL on /nfs and then point all userdirs there.

Usually by:

cd /
mv /home /home-dist
ln -s /nfs/home /home
mv /var/mail /var/mail-dist
ln -s /nfs/mail /var/mail
