Greetings
A question came up about doing an NFS mount thru a firewall into our office.
We have several servers setting outside the fire wall. A question was asked
if a NFS connection from one of the servers ( servers are running a couple
of different flavors of unix - our internet guy likes em ) back thru the
firewall to a server ( solaris 8) inside the fire wall. I have looked at
the archives and found some old references ( 1996 ) to not do NFS to the
outside world ( big security hole ). I was wondering if anyone has had to
deal with a similar request. Also has anyone had any experience with AFS ?
I read that it was more secure and better adapted to something like what we
are looking at.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
