Where is the filesystem mounted as user?
Is it mounted on the same dir for all users, or the path is different per user?
E.g. is it mounted on /media/network-share,
or on /home/$USER/network-share?

In the first case, the symlink will work even if the share is mounted on login.
If it depends on $USER, yeah symlinks won't help there.

But then you would need to dynamically specify the epoptes certificate location too, on user login.
Are you using a script for that? If so, can you paste the lines that set SERVERKEY and SERVERCRT?

Title:
  Certificate / key dir is not configurable

Status in Epoptes:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hallo,
  I like epoptes. It is fast and easy to use.

  I administer a school network with multiple computer labs. So the
  group teachers is maintained on a server and it would make
  configuration of computers much easier, if I could use a network share
  to host the certificates public and the keys private for the teachers
  group.

  I created a patch for this. I'm not sure if this is the correct way to
  submit my request and my patch.

  Please consider including the patch into epoptes.

  Greetings,
  Frank Schütte
