I used to run NFS over IPSec. Everything worked fine; event between 
linux, FreeBSD and W2K. IPSec provides authentication (you asked for)
and encryption (you COULD turn encryption off and just leave 
authentication in place).

When running a 2.6.x Kernel everything is in place -- you dont have to 
patch anything.
