Personnaly I created a new homedir attribute for departemental NFS 
server. Users have a central account on central server with:
homeDirectory: /home/loginname

their ldap entry has also a :

homeDirectoryDept01: /homedept/loginname
on stations relying on this particular departemental NFS server, 
/etc/ldap.conf maps that personnal attribute to the standard one:
nss_map_attribute       homeDirectory           homeDirectoryDept01

addons to my personal schema:

attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.your.oid... NAME 'homeDirectoryDept01'
       DESC 'The absolute path to the home directory in a departement: X'
       EQUALITY caseExactIA5Match
       SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26 SINGLE-VALUE )
