Not really - for one thing, their home directory is on a central server, and the chipcard has only got 16K (maybe 64K?).
They could still store the login info and then mount the home directory.

Oh, absolutely - but that's probably the least difficult part. The key question right now is if xmove will do the job, or there's something better out there. xmove is pretty ancient - I think the current release dates back to about 1995. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- http://www.spamchek.com/freetrial - managed anti-spam and anti-virus solution.
