First off, I'm running 16.04 not 14. We have a bunch of internal web services, and it would be nice to have SSO. The thing is that we also have a lot of linux servers. So I'm hoping I can use Gluu for authentication, then point our radius server and web services etc. at Gluu. I'm just confused on how I'd get home directories mounted on our linux servers. I see that gluu uses openldap so I'm hoping I can use autofs-ldap but I'm wondering if anyone has any experience installing this or other external utils on the gluu server? I couldn't find any documentation.

We didn't really target the Gluu Server for this use case. Gluu is primarily about centralized authentication/authorization for HTTP. I think you're on the right track with regard to using a PAM module for OpenLDAP. Did you look at PADL: http://www.padl.com/OSS/pam_ldap.html Also, if you have budget for commercial support, you should talk to Symas about this use case. I think they could help you.
