            Bug ID: 268823
           Summary: Kerberized NFS mount with "gssname" option does not
                    work
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org

Created attachment 239339
  --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=239339&action=edit
replace desired_name with GSS_C_NO_NAME so gss_acquire_cred() works

If you attempt a Kerberized NFS mount with the gssname option such as:
# mount -t nfs -o nfsv4,sec=krb5,gssname=host nfs-server:/ /mnt
the gssd daemon gets stuck in the gss_acquire_cred() library call
for several seconds.  It then returns success, but the credentials
are bogus.

A workaround is:
# kinit -k host/nfs-client.domain
# mount -t nfs -o nfsv4,sec=krb5 nfs-server:/ /mnt

The one line patch in the atttachment seems to fix the problem.

I have no idea how long this bug has existed, but I suspect it
has been broken for quite a while, due to some change in the Heimdal
GSSAPI library.
