well it is mounted on the WAN so it is accessible there right?
NFS is by the way not the best way for a "secure" file share.
But what has this to do with 389?
Seems like a general networking question to me and it depends mostly on what is done in terms of firewalling.

    Hi everyone,

    I have TWO linux machines in my office. One is on LAN (only
    locally-accessible) and the other on WAN (WWW-accessible). On the
    WAN, I have an apache server running but I also mounted a hard
    drive from the LAN machine using NFS so that I can easily access
    and transfer data files between the two machines.

    My question is:
    Is the hard drive from the LAN machine mounted on the WAN computer
    accessible from outside LAN? In other words, if an hacker breaks
    into my server on the WAN machine, will (s)he be able to access
    data on my NFS-mounted hard drive from the LAN machine? I would
    assume that since IP assigned to my LAN machine is only accessible
    locally, access from outside LAN to this hard drive will not be
    available. What do you think?

    Thank you for your suggestions.
    Amjad
