Ric,
Have clients with the same setup; no such issues....but we've
modified home directory sync prefs a few times to combat such issues.
For example, we do not filter our preferences, and we don't sync apps
(for most clients), as app syncing can cause some "fun" issues.
Occasionally, we have to split out folder (such as workspace in
Eclipse) to a non-synced directory, and simple make sure its backed
up properly or stored on a share served via AFP. For example, we have
a client whose (coded) projects are all stored on the
Xsan_RAID_Xserve environment. and served from a simple re-shared Xsan
volume from AFP.
Thanks,
j
