5.4. Securing NFS
The Network File System, or NFS, is service that provides network accessible file systems for client machines. For more information on how NFS works, refer to the chapter titled Network File System (NFS) in the Reference Guide. For more information about configuring NFS, refer to the System Administrators Guide. The following subsections assume a basic knowledge of NFS.
Important
The version of NFS included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux, NFSv4, no longer requires the
portmap service as outlined in Section 5.2, “Securing Portmap”. NFS traffic now utilizes TCP in all versions, rather than UDP, and requires it when using NFSv4. NFSv4 now includes Kerberos user and group authentication, as part of the RPCSEC_GSS kernel module. Information on portmap is still included, since Red Hat Enterprise Linux supports NFSv2 and NFSv3 which utilize it.
5.4.1. Carefully Plan the Network
Now that NFSv4 has the ability to pass all information encrypted using Kerberos over a network, it is important that the service be configured correctly if it is behind a firewall or on a segmented network. NFSv2 and NFSv3 still pass data insecurely, and concerns should be taken into consideration. Careful network design in all of these regards can help prevent security breaches.
