Just to clarify, I am interested in the NFS protocol, but not the Linux
kernel NFS server implementation; as I say, we have our own code that
implements NFS. The client will (very like) be the Linux NFS client.
I'm also interested in other GSS-based transfer protocols, in
particular, FTP. We (mostly high-energy particle physics communities)
use FTP within a GSS-based "SSL like" wrapper for moving data around.
Our software also provides Kerberised FTP access so this would be
another natural place to add support for moonshot.
Cheers,
Paul.
