Well, the server can't trust untrusted information coming from the client. NFS has many forms of strong authentication. But many, many users ignore it and simply apply careful administration in its place. I just don't want to go backwards when introducing NFS/RDMA. If I have to tell someone "well it works just like regular NFS except for..." guess what I'll hear. Oh and by the way, iWARP won't have this issue.
