The way it would normally work is you'd have a kerberos principal named "francois@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", and you'd run kinit francois@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (or that'd be done automatically for you on login if you have the right pam setup). When you do an nfs operation then the server will see you as francois@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, look for a local user named "francois", and use that uid/gid. But all authentication in nfs is per-user, not per-client, so you need a krb5 principal for each user. --b. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
