credentialed and compliance checks and networked file systems

It appears that nessus will cross onto network filesystems if home
directories are mounted there. is this intended behavior? not that it's
necessarily a bad thing, but it is something to be aware of when doing a
scan, particularly a compliance scan of a lot of boxes that have the same
file system mounted :)
my current solution is to have one box that has all the login accounts i
want to check on it, but disabled, and then go dig through them, restricting
the number of hosts actually doing that to the one.
