Greetings one and all from the Netherlands,

I'm considering deploying SFS in place of - or should I perhaps more 
correctly say - as an adjunct to NFS. I'm gonna lurk for a while to see 
what the general flavor of questions and answers are, while I do some 
reading and try to understand this rather complex but promising 'app.

I have two servers one in my office and one at home both running FreeBSD 
5.3-RELEASE. The one at home sits behind an ADSL router. Given that I 
want to share my home directory [etc] across the Internet, a secure 
solution seems most desireable. "Fear and Paranoia" have jointly 
prevented me from even attempting this yet. I was reading up on 
tunneling NFS over SSH when I encountered my first mention of SFS.

My level of experience could best be described as a moderately 
knowlegeable hobbyist. I'm no programmer that's for sure, and my 
knowledge of software 'internals' is sketchy-to-nonexistent.

Regards,
-Colin
