You would not do that as in install both of these on a "File server" and 
heading down that road will never work + based on my experience with the 
nfs maintainer and how broken nfs implementation is in Fedora I have no 
intention of trying to fix it's implementation in the 4th time Steve 
wants to handle that himself and keep it broken so let's just let him. 
Gluster would be a better chose and I said before I think its best for 
us to start with a single server application not entire stack ( like 
freeipa or lamp etc. )
