Maybe I should edit my original ideas...
Can I take a Ubuntu installation and produce the proverbial "flying gas
can"? The idea is to have a master machine (server) with a full
install of Ubuntu and then install additional machines with nothing but
the basics. What would I need for the basics? My thoughts were that I
would need only a kernel, basic startup scripts and a nfs client. Am I
correct?
The idea then is that the additional machines would have network access
to the software installed on the master machine (server)

Here is the deal.
I am running VMware and I have two linux virtual machines in my team.
I use DHCP to allocate the IP addresses for the machines. How do I
setup NFS so I can mount /home off a master machine? Also how do I
setup user account management to store passwords on the master machine?
I investigated a bit but was confused by the hosts file. It only
allows static IP addresses. I use DHCP so if there are any experts
around here who can advise on the best method of configuration it would
be appreciated to hear input.
BTW I am using Ubuntu (latest)
