Veering slightly off topic now but how reliable/secure is NFS these days? I stopped using it years ago as I got tired of the problems I used to have with it (probably my own fault). Is there a decent, lightweight distributed filesystem that's stable on FreeBSD? My main criteria are: 1. Lightweight - small and simple is best. 2. Cryptographically secure - we are very strict about cleartext protocols over the network here. I have seen Coda in ports but it labels itself as 'experimental' and I'm not really up for debugging my filesystem...
