What I want is to automount /home/user1 from a different server when
user1 logs in (to any of sereral other servers), but leave the local
copy of /home/user2 accessible. It looks like this is possible
using the 'direct' /- syntax in auto.master but not by specifying
/home and then only mentioning specific users in the auto.home file.
In the latter case, only the subdirectories mentioned are automounted,
but you can't access any local subdirectories under /home.
