Probably not but I wonder if this is in any way related to the problem
with write permissions on AFP and Tiger 10.4.1?

	Mmm, interesting thread.

	I use NFS at my office entirely, and I've had no issues
	with security, using it as I do with locally configured accounts
	and matching uids/gids across the net.

	However, some folks do need AFP or even SMB, and for those folks
	issues like these do come up. I think the main reason is these
	protocols were simply not designed with multiuser access in mind %^/
	Updates are coming to change that situation, but it's in a state
	of flux right now, and that means a year or so of instability
	while the protocols shake out the bugs.
