/home on server

For probably 20 years or so, I have been running Slackware, with a /home partition on a server, and the clients remote mounting that partition. Life has been good, and normally I run the same OS version on each of the clients. I also make /home mountable for the several Windoze laptops which are necessary for some applications.

I would like to transition from 14.2 to -current on one of the clients, and am wondering if anyone might have similar experience and can advise whether I am likely to have conflicts.

This is just a general inquiry, but I thought I should ask before I go through the process of the install on the client.

Thanks.
