The SunOS automounter (which we used before Solaris) did this too. It was a pain in the neck, as the "real" path to the home does show through, and you get the same problems with scripts &c containing physical, not logical, paths to files. Fixing the _users_ is much harder than fixing up the configurations...

However, with vfsbinds this is not an issue.
