I'm not familiar with windows roaming profiles, but if it's NFS, it will
probably behave just like NFS would on any other platform. However,
Fedora 2 has this SElinux stuff which might not like the idea of home
directories on NFS. It might also make the gnome/kde dotfiles unhappy
for the older versions running on the other systems. But these are
problems you are going to encounter for any shared filesystems.
