Hi Kapil,
So basically, the concept would be that on workstations, no work is done
in the home directories, but in chroots instead? In the end it looks
similar to the Amazon elastic computer cloud. Such a concept would
definitely be very flexible for users and admins, and I would definitely
be eager to try it if somebody builds a user-friendly free software
equivalent.
I just noticed the zeroinstall-injector package in Debian. I will give
it a try, and if it looks functionnal, I will suggest to use Debian
instead of CentOS to our admins next time we buy a shared workstation.
Have a nice day,
