Greetings all.
As I prepare (read find the time) to set up a Linux network at home i have
been reading up on NFS. This is apparently the standard Unix file
sharing/networking system. However whenever I read something about it I
read things like "its slow, horrible, etc" (nfs-howto) or "has security
problems so I wouldn't recommend it" (the new Linux Administration Made Easy
guide - found it on freshmeat yesterday).
Is NFS really that bad? - I am yet to read anything positive about it. If
it is that bad is there some kind of Linux networking system that is
better/quicker/more secure than NFS? I want to use a Linux server and
workstation setup
What's the opinion of all you Linux/Unix gurus/sysadmins out there of NFS?
