Hi all. At work I am experiencing with setting up some distributed file system, at the current moment working with NFS. The problem is that it is being setup at work and people, from their homes, need to be able to mount the system.
I have no prior experience in this, except for setting up and using NFS across a LAN. I would greatly appreciate any recommendations regarding security, effectiveness and other advices! I have been thinking about tunneling NFS over SSH2, and possibly using some kind of cache, but I do not know if this is actually the best approach. I have also been thinking about using AFS as posted before. Also perhaps, but not necessary, support for Windows could be needed in the long run. What are you guys using and how is it setup? Best and kind regards! Rico.
