As I'm sure you've notice the 15sec delay on all NFS mounts. This is because the kernel now tries to see if it should use Kerberos in the mount setup. If Kerberos is not set up (aka rpc.gssd is not running) it takes the kernel 15sec to figure that out (aka the upcall times out). The current workaround is to start rpc.gssd, but again, if Kerberos is not set up, rpc.gssd spews tons of message in /var/log/messages for every mount. Plus putting a user level daemon in the mount path is and never was a good idea... IMHO... Jeff Layton (jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx) has come up with some kernel patches what will detect whether the rpc.gssd daemon is or is not running. When rpc.gssd is not running the mount continues with no delay. I've ported them to both F19 and F20. Now, These patches are working their way upstream atm and the final version could be slightly different than these... I doubt it... But until then... The 15 sec delay will be dead! Thank very much Jeff Layton!!! steved. _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kernel
