Yes, it does.  In fact, I'm hoping to go live with the latest configuration
early this week.  We've decided the best way to go is to keep the home
directories all on one server, and not even let the user know that, and
keep up with passwords, etc. via YP.  One of the problems with the machines
I set up last year, is that the users couldn't remember their passwords.
This way, I can change passwords, from any place in the building.
