Default Possible to relocate Vista multiple account folders to NAS?


I'm wondering if the option to relocate account folders such as
Documents, Pictures etc. in Vista is possible with the setup I have in
mind.

I have multiple PCs on my network and want to relocate the
corresponding account folders from each PC - i.e. MyAccount from PC1 &
MyAccount from PC2 - to the same locations on a NAS, thus whatever
changes are made on one will be reflected on another - giving a kind of
Active Directory 'impression'.

Example: Go to Documents and select Properties Location Move, and
relocate directory to NAS. Do the same for corresponding
account/directory on another PC and relocate to same location on NAS.

I want to know whether relocating directories from two separate
directories/accounts/PCs to the same location on the NAS will cause
problems, or whether files will simply be accessable from either
account/PC.

If it's possible, will there be any permission issues (Windows and/or
NAS) and could such relocation still be done (even if some tweaking is
necessary) for directories such as Favorites, Contacts, Links etc?
