you sound so wise and produce excellent reference, but in the next breath you show NFS in use?

What would you use for remote mounting filesystems? I don't know of any that are simply superior (w/o caveats/tradeoffs).

Why is it so self-evident that NFS is bad?

I upvoted you, and yes, cleartext NFS is a concern.

I had it wrapped in stunnel TLS, but I ripped that out recently as I am retiring and the new staff is simply not capable of maintaining that configuration.

My users were yelling, and the patch to tinysshd to omit all permissions checks silenced the complaints. No, it's not pretty.
