Novice question !!!

Please teach me how to have a node-specific file on a diskless Sun ?  I am
porting a software product from HP to Sun. HP has a "cluster" to support
diskless nodes. They have Context Dependent File (CDF) to have a
node-specific file for each node. How does Sun support such an idea ?  It
seems to me that Sun makes heavy use of NFS and symbolic links. What man
pages do I need to read ?

Thanks in advance,
Masa
