- <para>Get the home share server from a NIS map. For
- UNIX systems that use an automounter, the user's home directory
- will often be mounted on a workstation on demand from a remote
- server. </para>
-
- <para>When the Samba logon server is not the actual home directory
- server, but is mounting the home directories via NFS then two
- network hops would be required to access the users home directory
- if the logon server told the client to use itself as the SMB server
- for home directories (one over SMB and one over NFS). This can
- be very slow.</para>
-
- <para>This option allows Samba to return the home share as
- being on a different server to the logon server and as
- long as a Samba daemon is running on the home directory server,
- it will be mounted on the Samba client directly from the directory
- server. When Samba is returning the home share to the client, it
- will consult the NIS map specified in <link linkend="HOMEDIRMAP">
- <parameter moreinfo="none">homedir map</parameter></link> and return the server
- listed there.</para>
-
- <para>Note that for this option to work there must be a working
- NIS system and the Samba server with this option must also
- be a logon server.</para>

- <para>Default: <command moreinfo="none">nis homedir = no</command></para>
