NFS vs. Shorewall conflict (should be easy to solve - :newbie: here)

Ok, i can get NFS to share read-only directories between two Mandrake Linux machines over a LinkSys box. However to do so, I have to turn off Shorewall, effectively leaving me wide open for Firewall protection....

What parameters do I supply Shorewall with to allow NFS to operate and is this a bad thing ?

thanks a bunch

if you are behind a linksys router, what makes you think you are open to attack?
