is it possible to turn off all the permission support in ext2fs?
Not as far as I know.
Does it in windoze? ;)will that speed up disk access actually?
In all seriousness, filesystem permissions are not a measurable cause of disk IO issues. The type of filesystem, your hardware, and how the box is used are all what will impact IO performance.
if security can be quarateed at network port level, and that only I could login the machine at console, is there a need for file system security?Yes many. Keep in mind, its not only human users that run processes that write to the filesystem.
