could someone tell me an alternative to NFS, which is safer? I search for an implementation authenticated not only over uid and gid. I think about DCE DFS, but there is'nt an implementation for linux yet. Have someone a hint or some experience in this case?
What about ssh with scp to copy files. If you create keys and enter them in the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys you can copy files without password prompt. You have a secure authentification and can copy the files crypted and compressed (with "scp -C").
