nfs4 + kerberos gives authentication and encryption and requires very

Well, at my work they're rather paranoid.
For some, we have to tunnel internet through the corporate network,
For others, we tunnel our corporate network with voip over public
networks.

Indeed, sounds odd, it is odd, but true.

NFS4 is still on my "to investigate" list

Good boy. But does he run a network? Can we include him? I don't think we can. He tels of his experience of networks but doesn't mention a network address, kerebos whatever that is firewall, ip client and ssh. . . So no. sorry.


He's more than qualified to give you advice for
the complexity level of your network.

kerberos is an encrypted, time-variant authentication system.

The reason for time-variance is so that when you send your
encrypted password, someone can't capture it with a network
sniffer program and use it later, because the encryption of
the valid password keeps changing as time goes by.
