[ I haven't found an answer to this - the usual nobody:nobody issues
appear to be domainname related and not in play here... ]
What are the conditions where rpc.idmapd should be queried on an NFS
client? I have a few that appears to be completely ignored, resulting
in /home/* being presented as belonging to nobody:nobody. The same
configuration is fine on other identically configured boxes.
On two identically configured boxes, the following:
killall rpc.idmapd && rpc.idmapd -f -vvvv
shows queries during "ls -l /home" on box A, but nothing (ever) on box
B (which is the problematic box).
I have many details from an investigation a few weeks ago, but think
it's prudent to keep the initial email brief.
Here are some of those details:
- 1 NFS server
- 10 NFS clients
- 6 (initially deployed boxes) list /home/* fine.
- 4 (added later) have the nobody:nobody issue.
- All CentOS 6.3 (64 bit)
- All clients installed via same kickstart configs (w/ diff hostname)
- All servers were reinstalled after the 4 newer nodes were added,
so they should be identical.
- diff'ing /etc dirs from good vs bad boxes reveals nothing significant.
Thanks
