or may not work depending on the software/firmware of the device. NFSv3 is a well supported protocol across SAN vendors and you should not have any problems setting that up. I've used Openfiler on a white-box SAN with home dirs and automount maps which is
working fine for us.<br>
I wonder if you could do some sort of CIFS home dir automount with a SAN that is joined to an AD domain which is trusted by FreeIPA? Seems like this would be feasible.<br>
