Is there anyone out there using a Synology DiskStation running Directory Server (their LDAP implementation) to provide authentication AND network homes for OSX? I've tried setting it up and have hit a roadblock with getting the OSX clients to automount the NFS export where the home folders reside on Synology. I would love to know if anyone out there is doing this and how they configured the clients to automount the homes.

Have you tried mounting the volumes and then adding them to their LogIn items? I have my iTunes library on my Synology and use that to get the volume mounted every time I restart (which is only for system updates that need restarting.)
