I also have some Fedora workstations that are experiencing the same symptoms. I noticed that the userlist is being pulled from my NIS server (when the connection is down the list does not appear). but I cannot work out why the home directories are automatically mounting at boot.
Does anybody have any ideas what is causing the automounts? where I can disable this functionality? logging in as root and running umount /home/each.previously.logged.in.user is a little tedious!
Where should I be asking about this if it's not a specific centos issue?
surely someone has noticed this in the past and found a solution?

Once a user logs into a CentOS7 workstation their username appears in the login screen 'user list'. I have disabled the list but notice that after a reboot running mount -l shows all previously authenticated users home directories are being mounted over NFS again automatically.
I don't believe that this is directly related to either gdm or CentOS 7: we have the same problem, using kdm and CentOS 6.6. We have over 200 systems and the problem happens on only about 10% of them, but of all of the machines on which it does happen, the machine is used as a workstation (the rest being headless compute servers). I can't see anything obvious that would explain the difference.
