Hi !!!!!!!!!!!

we have purchased the Dell PowerVault NF 500 NAS Storage Box with Window Storage server 2003 is Installed.we have LDAP server for authentication the user in network for accessing network resources.All ubuntu users on client side use ubuntu(LDAP server )for user authentication.when a user logon on client side machine his home directory is created on client machine .

but we want to use the NAS storage device to store the home directories of user.we want to implement that ,whenever a user logon his home directory is created on powerValut NF 500 storage device so that all user data is stored centrally for taking the backup .we want to mount NAS storage device so that user uses when they login and create user profile.

please provide me the solution ;how to solve this problem .
Thanks in advance for solving the problem

The PowerVault NF500 NAS device comes pre-installed with Microsoft Windows Storage Server 2003 according to the blurb. This is not what you want. You need to run Linux NFS to support your Ubuntu clients.
