We have taken a somewhat different approach.  To promote portability and
other factors, home directories are on a SAN and presented to a VServer
host via iSCSI.  These are then mounted into VServer guests using mount
--rbind commands.  This creates great scalability, performance, and
isolation but the lack of important POSIX capabilities in the VServer
guests makes for some challenges - John
