actually the NSA Secure Linux program has that as an action item. check out http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/index.html the thing to remember is that 'secure' in the SELinux project means implementing mandatory access control, not producing a better disk encryption system or whatever. btw, i've been using the various builds of the system since the inception of the program...i think it's worth the effort to try it out. amazing how insecure linux is out in the wild. pz

Hey, all. I feel bad because this is my first post in about a million years, and it's a question, but here goes.
Is there any way to make NFS even vaguely secure on Linux? I'm thinking something like sec=dh on Solaris, but _anything_ that will stop a random unix host from being able to access everything on our shares would be fine.
