I used unix/linux for many years. In the past we've used nfs. But nfsv3 has no (useful) authentication. Anyone can setup a rogue machine and pretend to be any uid/gid. I understand that nfsv4 was supposed to fix that. Looking at the docs I could find, it appears I'll never live long enough to understand how to set that up, and I haven't yet found the idiot's guide to setting up nfsv4 with authentication. For now I'm using cifs. That's pretty sad. I've glanced at afs, but there's no Fedora package.
