Conclusion

In this chapter we have shown how an NFS server can be modified to enforce role-based access control. We have demonstrated the feasibility of our main idea. However, performance needs to be improved. Nevertheless, we believe the enhanced server can be used to bring RBAC to a large number of existing systems and applications, without the need for modification of existing software.
