<FONT FACE="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:11pt'>One thing to consider is that Leopard is no longer based on netinfo. Pre-leopard was nice using NetInfo Manager for arranging tasks like the movement of /users to a different drive/partition. This would all have to be done with dscl now... On the upshot, it’s all scriptable...<BR>

<BR>
We have an Active Directory setup where the users home directories are local<BR>
to the machine (our faculty often have 10GB+ of data, and some have<BR>
laptops).<BR>
<BR>
We were contemplating doing separate user and OS partitions at the same time<BR>
to make any future OS upgrades less painful, without having to worry about<BR>
user data.<BR>
