Hi venerable list
I have been contemplating home directories a lot. Generally the homedirectory issues is solved via NFS or CIFS. Neither work well in the "take laptop and work from home" scenario. I have tried a myriad of clustered filesystems none of which worked really well. I have tried local homedirectories that are synced with central storage. Systemd-homed looks kinda interesting since it can be served as encrypted files via CIFS. That means the homedirectories can act pretty much like a local home but really be server side (I have seen the same done with union mounts and files served via NFS, it worked but was a bit wonky). I just wonder if there has been thoughts about how homed could work with freeipa? As far as I can tell homed deals with local users. Does anyone have thoughts about how it could eventually integrate or is it a dead end?
