[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1620719, member: 131855"] I'm sure there are ways to keep the two Macs in sync. Although I don't have a solution I don't think putting the user's home directory on the NAS is a good solution. Some of the configuration information stored in that folder would be needed before the NAS is typically accessed. Additional complications arise if there are any delays accessing the NAS. With my Time Capsule for example I run a login script to mount my iTunes library so that it is available when iTunes launches. Sometimes access is slower than usual and the script times out. You can't have that happen when accessing the User folder. [/QUOTE]
