I've had for a long time a setup for (Fedora-)laptops where the laptop has local home directories for users in /home/<username> and in fstab the directory is mounted (when available) to NFS share on home network.
This worked nicely until recently (F28/F29) when it seems that automount was configured to attempt to mount /home as the user logs on (GDM). Since this automount fails, the login is terminated despite the fact that there is a valid /home/<username> on the fs.
So the question is: Is there anything similar in simplicity to set up as a replacement to the current setup, or, alternatively, how does one disable the automount from attempting to mount non-reachable NFS mounts at login time?
This change might be the new systemd automounter. If your previous configuration was using autofs, that should still be available. More detail would be helpful.
