T 3.10 Incorrect export of file systems under Unix

Exported disks can be mounted by any computer with a name defined in/etc/exports. The user of that computer can assume any UID and GID, i.e. only those files which belong to root can be protected. The files of all other users are completely unprotected, in particular those files which belong to privileged users such as bin or daemon.
