Secure NFS
The NFS environment is a powerful and convenient way to share file systems on a network of different computer architectures and operating systems. However, the same features that make sharing file systems through NFS operation convenient also pose some security problems. An NFS server authenticates a file request by authenticating the computer making the request, but not the user when using UNIX authentication. When using UNIX authentication, a client user can run su and impersonate the owner of a file. If DES authentication is used, the NFS server will authenticate the user, making this sort of impersonation much harder.

N�o, mas quando se trata de Linux e NFS. Solaris tem o secure-nfs.

Mas o sNFS continua sendo feito para autenticar *m�quinas*, n�o
usu�rios. A autentica��o � mais robusta, pois se baseia em criptografia
de chave p�blica (DES).

Somente o "root" pode montar compartilhamentos sNFS. Um usu�rio "root"
na m�quina-cliente, usando "su", continua tendo acesso completo a
qualquer arquivo pertencente a qualquer usu�rio que esteja na base de
dados (/etc/passwd ou NIS).
