What we are trying to do is put this Openfiler system on the internet and only serve NFS shares to a few RHEL3 servers for mirroring backup data. I know it's not the most secure way to do this, but my understanding that the network level security would be plenty. Here is my test: Openfiler Share /mnt/volgroup1/vol1/share1/ Public guest access WEB5 NFS RW only Name Network/Host Netmask Type WEB5 x.x.x.43 255.255.254.0 Share (IP's have been removed for the email) On the WEB5 Server the following works fine. mkdir /mnt/nfs mount -t nfs openfilerserver:/mnt/volgroup1/vol1/share1/ /mnt/nfs Dec 14 11:02:04 SERVER rpc.mountd: authenticated mount request from x.x.x.42:938 for /mnt/volgroup1/vol1/share1 (/mnt/volgroup1/vol1/share1) WEB5 is at .43 and according to openfiler should be the only system allowed to access this share. Turns out that when I run the same command on a different server in that network but at address .42 (WEB4) I can also mount that share. Clearly I have defeated the network security. Either my logic is off or it's something else. I have tested the mount on another system that is not in that IP range and I am denied access so I know something is working. Your help is greatly appreciated.
