Nope, it makes things even worse: # mount -oro,intr XXX:/yyy /mnt/c/ <15s delay here> mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting XXX:/yyy So in nfs4_proc_get_root I do: printk("%s: %d %u\n", __func__, i, flav_array[i]); status = nfs4_lookup_root_sec(server, fhandle, info, flav_array[i]); printk("%s: res=%d\n", __func__, status); and get: [ 18.159818] nfs4_proc_get_root: 0 1 [ 18.214872] nfs4_proc_get_root: res=-1 [ 18.214875] nfs4_proc_get_root: 1 0 [ 18.254636] nfs4_proc_get_root: res=-1 [ 18.254639] nfs4_proc_get_root: 2 390003 [ 33.252174] RPC: AUTH_GSS upcall timed out.

And what matters is the last retval. From NULL it is EPERM, from GSS it is EACCESS.
