Hello Peter,
Personally, I would never, *ever* run NFS in a situation in which the
network wasn't trusted. That's why we don't do it across the Internet
(same with SMB filesharing, BTW). The only things that I trust at this
point for transferring "privileged" data across an untrusted network are
encrypted transmissions, such as SSH, IPSec, and SSL-encrypted tunnels.
Can you tell us why you need to have eth0 as untrusted? If we know your
requirements, we might be able to help you out better.
Thanks,
--TP
