[K12OSN] Multiple NFS servers to 1 login server?

[Heath Henderson]

Are there any docs or Howto's out there explaining the best way to setup
a system where we mount multiple NFS servers (home directories) to 1
common server?

Here is the situation.  

We have been asked to provide access from home to our user's home
directories.  Well, I have been playing with ssh and managed to get out
portal server (the 1 common server in this case) to mount home
directories from 1 NFS server.  It reads the LDAP server, gets the home
dir path and as an NFS client automounts the homedir. 
BUT.  I am using NFSv4 set to export /home.  My auto.home on the common
server is set to read the NFS server with
(      school1:/home/& * -fstype=nfs4,rw,proto=tcp,port=2049
172.16.1.10:/&  )

Can I add 
school2:/home/& * -fstype=nfs4,rw,proto=tcp,port=2049 172.16.2.10:/&

and just continue on finishing out to school15:/home/&     ?

Or, do I need to make entires in the auto.home which map to the speicfic
users home dir path including the server their home dir resides on?

Any help would be welcomed.
