NFS security:<br />
/etc/exports specifies what files / directories are mountable<br />
<br />
Example:<br />
# /etc/exports: NFS file systems being exported. See exports(5).<br />
/vol1 *(rw,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)<br />
/home/john *(rw,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)<br />
<br />
User permissions are determined by UID / GID<br />
If the user account on the remote device has a UID that matches up with the owner of the files on the NFS server, they can / will have full write access!!! If they have root on the remote device, they can become any UID they want!<br />
<br />
<br />
== changing a users UID ==<br />
usermod -u -<UID> <username><br />
