Is there an environmental restriction in your application or organization for this? Normally CIFS mounts can umounted easily in runtime.

At any rate... if I were in your shoes and really restricted to the options you propose, I would go with CIFS mounts through IPSEC tunnels.

Wouldn't IPSEC add more overhead than an SSH tunnel?
