[wellylug] Linux Client-Server System

hi all,

I want to set up a system, where I have a server containing all my home
directories for all my users. I then want to be able to logon from any
other linux machine, which will mount the server share as my home
folder.


For the clients, I want to be able to logon via a program like GDM or
even a straight terminal. To any user on the client it should be
transparent, just as if the files were on the local machine.


what software should I use to do this? It also needs to be secure, as
it's to run across a wifi network.

If it was linux server & windows client I would use samba, but I'm not
sure if it can be used for linux clients, or even if it should.


thanks,
