Anyone got any advice/pros/cons on running NFS on machines that are permanently connected to the net. I may be moving one of our clients to a load-balancing situation at some point and need to share some directories out to make this happen.

Make sure that the outside world can't access nfs on the machines. Whether you do this with ipchains/iptables or try to use hosts.deny to limit it is up to you. That's the main thing to bear in mind. -- MJR
