Hi,
I am trying to configure a NFS server with kerberos support. The catch is,
the NFS server is part of a cluster. Therefore, all the client mounts are
done using the
cluster name and not the server name.
For eg: Let cluster name = Mycluster.domain.com , server =
server1.domain.com
-----------------------
In this case, when my NFS client mounts as :
mount -o vers=3,sec=krb5 server1.domain.com:/tmp_share /mnt => This
passes
However,
mount -o vers=3,sec=krb5 Mycluster.domain.com:/tmp_share /mnt => This
fails.
I am guessing the gssd daemon on the server side is creating a context for
its localhost, which is => server1.domain.com
However, the request is meant for Mycluster.domain.com. Hence, it fails
due to the mismatch.
Please clarify if my reasoning is correct. If yes, also please let me know
a possible solution
Thanks and regards
