rpc.svcgssd - server-side rpcsec_gss daemon
rpc.svcgssd [-n] [-v] [-r] [-i] [-f] [-p principal]
The rpcsec_gss protocol gives a means of using the gss-api generic
security api to provide security for protocols using rpc (in
particular, nfs). Before exchanging any rpc requests using
rpcsec_gss, the rpc client must first establish a security context
with the rpc server. The linux kernel's implementation of rpcsec_gss
depends on the userspace daemon rpc.svcgssd to handle context
establishment on the rpc server. The daemon uses files in the proc
filesystem to communicate with the kernel.
-f Runs rpc.svcgssd in the foreground and sends output to stderr
(as opposed to syslogd)
-v Increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified
multiple times).
-r If the rpcsec_gss library supports setting debug level,
increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified
multiple times).
-i If the nfsidmap library supports setting debug level,
increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified
multiple times).
-p Use principal instead of the default nfs/FQDN@REALM.
-n Use the system default credentials (host/FQDN@REALM) rather
than the default nfs/FQDN@REALM.
Some of the options that can be set on the command line can also be
controlled through values set in the [svcgssd] section of the
/etc/nfs.conf configuration file. Values recognized include:
principal
If set to system this is equivalent to the -n option. If set
to any other value, that is used like the -p option.
