I have two linux boxes, one at work and one at home. The one at work has several remote filesystems mounted to it via samba (2 unix and 2 NT). I would like to have access to all of those filesystems from home as well. I currently use samba to mount them all, but I periodically have problems. This prompts me to ask what is the most stable and most secure way of mounting remote filesystems. Is NFS a better option than samba? I suspect these are my best two options, but perhaps there is more? Security isn't a huge issue. The data I'm trasporting isn't particularly sensitive (i.e. it doesn't really matter if someone sees it.) I just mean security in the sense that someone can't use it as a hole to get into my system.
