I am supporting a user who is logging into multiple linux systems that all have the same /home directory mounted to a network filer. When the user opens firefox on one system, he is unable to open firefox on other systems. I'm assuming this is because firefox is storing his profile in /home. These are Centos 5.4 x64 systems, authenticatiing to a Windows 2003 Domain. The filer that hosts the home directories is a NetApp with both CIFS and NFS permissions enabled on the volume that /home resides. We are using the version that came with the Centos installation, 3.0.12
