+ <p>For <sys its:translate="no">dconf</sys> to work correctly when using
+ <sys>Network File System</sys> (<sys>NFS</sys>) home directories, the
+ <sys its:translate="no">dconf</sys> <em>keyfile backend</em> must be
+ used.</p>
+
+ <steps>
+ <item>
+ <p>Edit the <file its:translate="no">/etc/dconf/profile/user</file> file
+ on every client. If one does not already exist, create it.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Add a line containing
+ <code><input its:translate="no">service-db:keyfile/user</input></code> to
+ the file and save your changes.</p>

+ <p>In-process changes will take effect imediately, but out-of-process
+ changes will be delayed by the poll time on GFileMonitor.</p>
+ </comment>
+ <p>The <sys its:translate="no">dconf</sys> <em>keyfile backend</em> will only
+ take effect the next time that the user logs in. It polls the keyfile to
+ determine whether updates have been made, so settings may not be updated
+ imediately.</p>

+ <p>According to Ryan, "SIGBUS being semi-randomly delivered to your
+ processes is a real downer". This means stuff will crash.</p>
+ </comment>
+ <p>If a <em>keyfile backend</em> is not used, the user settings may not be
+ retrieved or updated correctly.</p>
