hi,

We have the NFS homes on something like:

/nethome/disc01/users/homes/foobar
/nethome/disc02/users/homes/bla
/nethome/disc03/users/homes/golem

and a special mountpoint for /home, that contains links to the real
homepath:

pwd shows "/nethome/disc02/users/homes/bla" instead of /home/bla. But
not all programs shows this. The KDE terminal has "~" lxterminal
"/nethome/disc02/users/homes/bla" ...

So, is it possible to "hide" the real path?

getent passwd foobar

foobar:x:14103:26:Foobar student:/home/foobar:/bin/bash

The NFS Server resides on Solaris 10.

any suggestions?

I'm not sure, if it fits for ~2000 students ... but interesting hint.

thanks
