Would you mind sharing that script (or scripts) - off-list if you prefer? I'd 
be curious as to how you have solved this part. We were using a similar 
set-up in the past, but this whole "NFS $HOME + some parts local" proved 
rather flaky at the time, hence, we went back to NFS-only - with the 
corresponding performance penalty plus all sorts of vague problems as 
described earlier.

So, no groupware functionality?

Cheerio & thanks for the input,
