Lithgow) Organization: Univ. of Pittsburgh, Comp & Info Sys Lines: 20 ----------- To all networking afficionados, I'm looking for information/scripts/code on determining the level of security of Ultrix and other BSD-compatible systems vis-a-vis NFS access. I'm hoping that something is out there which would assist in keeping this system secure against intrusion and also be a tool for new Sun workstations coming online - to make sure that the new system administrator has secured the appropriate partitions in /etc/exports, among other things.. Is /etc/exports the only nfs security mechanism between the world and the workstation user? If you have any references, or experiences, please pass them along, and I will summarize interesting results back to the net. -- David P.
