XF86, NFS, multiple hosts, one user :-)



Hi,

I work in an environment where I mount my home directory via NFS,
which means that no matter what (Linux) host I log in from, it reads
the same set of files for my X customization (.xsession, .xinitrc,
etc).

What I'm trying to accomplish is the ability to have completely
different X environments depending on the host I log in on.  If I log
in on my Mandrake laptop, I want to run KDE with all of the Mandrake
niceties, launching Galeon, Konsole and Kmail automagically.  But if
I log in from my 'real workstation' which is a Redhat 7.2 box, I want
to run Xfce with Galeon, Konsole and KMail launched automagically.

This doesn't seem like it should be overly difficult, but appears to
be rather 'underdocumented'.  Can someone point me to some
documentation on this or give me some ideas?

Thanks
