Much as been replied to this already. If both systems are going to be used, I might suggest that you set up your home directory on one system and use NFS to export it to the other, so that when you log in to either system you get the same home directory. You also want to make sure that your userids and groups on the two systems are the same. As, previously mentioned, YaST2 can be used to set up the NFS server and to configure the exports file. (However, the file is an ASCII file, /etc/exports). There is a feature called automount, where exported directories may be automatically mounted when referenced, but that is probably not necessary for you at this point.
