Using "sec=krb5p" here... And with lots of active clients. :-/

Oh! Could I add another entry in /etc/exports with krb5 without afecting
current krb5p clients?

I'm afraid I don't have the skills to carry out those tasks, haven't
coded in C for decades, not to mention kernel/nfs hacking.
I guess we'll have to wait until someone else hits this too, or we
