one day i needed a network filesystem, and nfs came to my hand :) of course it isn't
secure (i use it with ssh over the network) but without doubt is more standard
for talking with other unix boxes that samba.
good point: it has a userland implementation. if someone breaks it, he/she won't
trash the full box, only a daemon.
bad: we already have coda :) (and i've never used it :)
so: i don't know, i could use coda on my fileserver instead of nfs :) i didn't
want to star a flame, only ask about opinions :)))
