I thought about NFS, but years ago Dagmar and others railed on the security
issues (portmapper issues particularly), so I've never looked into it.  I've
got pretty stringent firewall rules on the box, use xinetd, etc.  that
(help) protect it, but the connection itself has little protection from
attacks.

scp protocol is working just fine.  I really want a mount, not just copying
files.
