The system-config-netboot GUI should support configuration of the per-client 
/etc/fstab files in the snapshot directories and enable easy configuration of
nfs /home mount points.
Comment 1 Jason Vas Dias 2005-08-25 15:42:43 UTC 
The implementation should give users the opportunity to either use NFS 
or to configure automount maps for the /home directories.
Comment 2 Fabio Olive Leite 2007-11-12 20:48:32 UTC 
Reassigning to component owner.
Comment 3 Radek Brich 2007-11-13 11:12:33 UTC 
Currently whole /home is mounted read-write (I added it to default snapshot
files), so users can normally log in and write to their home. Is this a wrong
solution for some reason? Or can I just close this bug now?
Comment 5 Jaroslav Reznik 2010-04-14 13:40:48 UTC 
System-config-netboot is entering maintainance-only phase and the whole package will be deprecated soon. There are no plans for active development, only high severity issues bugfixing.
