IPSEC and NFS
Has anyone on this list given any thought to how IPSEC and NFS can play
nicely
together? While host-to-host IPSEC can protect NFS transactions from
outsiders,
there's still the problem of the client (or heck, the server) cheating
on things
like uid,gid, etc.
The question could, I suppose, be re-asked as how to make existing RPC
systems
(NFS being a prime example) use IPSEC in ways that make good security
sense.
[Sorry for injecting an admittedly tangential question to IPSEC itself,
but the
participants in this list are the most likely candidates for having
thought
about some of these issues...]
