What is all about ssh nfs security?

The Secure version of the Network File System (a.k.a. NFS) have been implemented via The Secure Shell (a.k.a SSH) tunneling of UDP data grams as described in the Questions section here: http://www.employees.org/~satch/ssh/faq/

Software download link: http://www.math.ualberta.ca/imaging/snfs/sec_rpc-1.54.tar.gz

When you tunnel via SSH you actually increase the security of the connection and prevents IP from spoofing, and it also permit NFS to be used across a firewall.

Hi,

NFS stands for Network File System. Security in NFS can be achieved through SSH tunneling.Encryption of NFS Traffic over a network is one of the things achieved through the port forwarding capabilities of the SSH. Tunneling of User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is a security implementation in the NFS and prevents IP spoofing.
