if /home from the remote box is already shared out and you want the remote /home directory to be your permanent home directory on the local box ... no need to disable the automounter ...
edit /etc/auto_home and make the automounter mount the remote directory first ... see "man automount" for futher info ...
a quick example ...
Code:
user localhost:/export/home/&
user1 remotehost:/export/home/& localhost:/export/home/&
* localhost:/export/home/& remotehost:/export/home/&
line explanations:
1. the home directory for "user" is his home directory that is automounted from the local box
2. the home directory for "user1" is his home directory that is automounted from the remote box
3. everybody else's home directories are automounted from the local box if available locally and from the remote box if not
