Re: HowTo: Mount a volume over Internet?

2002-09-10 Thread Ray Olszewski
In principle it is possible to do this with NFS mounts. In practice, doing it raises significant security risks. And the firewalling present at either end might (should, if the firewalls are configured to do a good job) interfere with it. If you really need to do this, I'd recommend your looki
