I'm pretty sure that it doesn't try to automatically mount the share on startup since there is no log entry that would indicate such an attempt. I already tried to do the mount as a user (which is authenticated via kerberos such that there is a valid ticket for that user) the logs (that i have posted) are showing what comes out of it. If I try to do the mount without the fstab- entry (i.e. mount -t nfs4 -o sec=krb5p dnsdhcp:/ /mnt/net) it is being rejected on the grounds that only root can perform a mount. 'sudo' doesn't work currently (i've got some problems with my PAM config for sudo) so I haven't had any chance to try it out... I've already set up automount but it actually does exactly the same as if I ran mount manually as described above. I'm totally confused because I don't understand what people like http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.nfsv4/5893 might have done to perform a mount with normal user privileges. If it was really mandatory to be root (as stated by Andy Adamson in the other message) then I wouldn't really understand why they should have implemented the uid passing using that pipefs file.... -- 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
