Well why do you use pam_mount for automounting the homes directories?
Using the automounter only is enough. But then you have to use
something like:

/home/... for local users
/home.remote/... for remote users

or something simular.

And then setup the automounter to mount the users home directory
when accessing /home.remote/X. I'm not familiar with nfs, but the
automounter offers various abilities to mount from nfs. This setup is
access based, and not PAM.
