HOME nfs from IRIX box -> trouble with open dialogs

	I have a new Linux box ( Dell650N + RH9 ) I'm trying to integrate
	into the office computing environment.
	In short my HOME directory is served via NFS from an SGI IRIX
	server.
	For reasons best known to himself and in contravention to what
	I learned in SGI NEtwork class many years ago, our ex-SA had
	the NFS stuff automounting. 
	My understanding of automount is that it ought to be reserved
	for things you aren't hitting with any frequency ie: not HOME.
	Anyhow, what happens when I try to open an existing project is
	that the open dialog shows:

		/users
			+hishome
		 	+myhome
			+herhome
			+...

	When I click on the other directories under /user I get
	more subdirectories as expected.
	When I click on "myhome", the "+" goes away and I get nothing
	or it shows up as "myhome" ( no "+" ).
	Only way I can get to files is to enter the fully qualified path,
	for instance to open the "javathing" project.

		/users/myhome/TESTING.d/JAVA.d/JavaThing.d/javathing.jpx
	
	Any ideas what might be the problem?

	IBM
