Pryakhin,
	This is what I do in my deployment and works without a problem. It is 
rather straight forward.

On FDS.
---
* Under user account, enable Posix attribute (if you are doing it via 
the console) or just add posixaccount objectclass for the entry
* Provide, uid, uidnumber, gidnumber and home dir information. ex. 
schetty, 501, 501, /home/schetty

On your Linux client (all my clients/workstations are FC6)
* Run authconfig-tui (or system-config-authentication). Enter the your 
server name/ip, base suffix
* Configure auto.master and auto.home
* Make sure you are able to mount your remote homes via nfs/autofs
* Run getent passwd to make sure your client can get user info from your 
LDAP.

Cheers,
-Satish.
