Hi Dani I think that you forget that the normal user authentication is still there. like on any ([l]Unix) machine. So passwords and file access is the same: an imported file system is not suddenly open when mounted at an other host. of course the exports should go to known hosts as wel.

Dear List,
we use nfs to export a file-system of a file-server. But there is no authentification of the importing computer, so everyone in our subnet could give them selves a valid IP and has access to all files.
No they have not... do not worry about that regards Frank w Kooistra
