It worked. That is pretty neat. I've used NFS before, although not
recently and I have never used it with automount this way. If I get some
time today or tomorrow I may set up one of my other Solaris boxes to share
some home directories via NFS to experiment some more before I wipe the
O/S on this machine out and do a fresh install (I really can't live with
the default partitions, and at this point since I haven't done any
customazation it will be easier to do a fresh install then to move
everything around). This way I'll have some idea if/how this will work for
this machine.

Thanks Gabriel, I learned something today.
