There a simple performance reason not to use nfs that extensively, I
think!

A free Anrew File System like setup would be nice to deal with these kind 
of nfs perfomrance problems.

We do use a commercial tool called venus for administering our linux
Ppro Cluster together with Iri, Ultrix and VMS machines. This tool does
the distribution of new software, home dirs, passwd....
