But on the public interface of your fire wall is routed to
internet. And more service you add, more yu are prone to a bug in one
service. And if you miss configure your filtering...
I am thinking of using FreeBSD bridge facility with IP firewall,
network interface are not configured to run P, no IP service seen,
only Ethernet service (like a hub) but enhanced with firewall. No need
to say there would be no NFS available, but even no telnet/ssh to that
machine :)

I have seen in this list several times that you better back-up on th
client rather than NFS mount.

Dump back-up a complete disk partition, so it simply goes disk block
by dick block and does not bother about the filse system logic set
above the disk blocks.
