Thanks again!
No! it allows auto mount that pre created home folder ONLY  to the NFS server. For e.g if I have /xtra/home/nasir alread created, then it automatically mounts  while login to NFS server ( ssh -l nasir NFS_SERVER ). But when I try to login as the same user to some other machine ( ssh -l nasir ANY_IPA_MACHINE) it gives the following error,
[root at openipa ~]# ssh -l nasir 192.168.1.222 -Xnasir at 192.168.1.222's password: Creating home directory for nasir.Last login: Tue May 17 04:06:43 2011 from openipa.cohort.orgCould not chdir to home directory /home/nasir: No such file or directory-sh-4.1$ ls
So it is not working right ? Hope it is clear to you now.
Thanks and regards,Nidal


If I manually create one home folder( e.g /xtra/home/abc
                ) under than, then I can mount it, but nothing can be
                written to it by the user as it gives permission denied
                error.
            
          
        
      
    
    

    Yes, but it should allow the root user to create and chown the
    directory, so the autocreation of home dirs should work.
