[comp.protocols.nfs] PC-NFS Security

qmrhealey@uqvax.cc.uq.oz.au (06/15/91)

NFS security is obviously a topical issue, from several notes posted
here. I would like to hear from anyone out there who has experience
with PC-NFS and can provide details about security holes if any.
One of our local people has stated that it is possible to obtain
root privileges from a PC when say SunOS is mounted,thus entitling
users to grand marauder status.
Any YEAS, NAYS and expicit details on this problem would be
appreciated.
