FreeBSD kernel NFS RPCGSS_KRB5 subversion commit

[Αλέξανδρος Περδικομάτης]

hello,

I am writing to you since I've got no other way in mind to discuss this
subject.
The reason I am writing is that I know no one to help my project on FreeBSD
and the kernel commision from you is a proof tha you know the subject very
well.

by the way, if you allow me, I would want to complain about one of your
messages.

at the state where

+			ret2 = rpc_gss_set_svc_name_call(principal,
+			    "kerberosv5", GSS_C_INDEFINITE, NFS_PROG, NFS_VER2);
+			ret3 = rpc_gss_set_svc_name_call(principal,
+			    "kerberosv5", GSS_C_INDEFINITE, NFS_PROG, NFS_VER3);
+			ret4 = rpc_gss_set_svc_name_call(principal,
+			    "kerberosv5", GSS_C_INDEFINITE, NFS_PROG, NFS_VER4);
+
+			if (!ret2 || !ret3 || !ret4)
+				printf("nfsd: can't register svc name\n");


it means that if one of three versions of NFS is failed to register,
then kernel prints this message.

So, in case where we use only verion 4, we'll  allways see thie message.

Does't bother me really but it confused me.

Now, back to the sunbject: I would be glad if you guide me on using
rpc_gss_krb5 calls on NFSv4.

I have no one to discuss this, and I would love your consultance.

We need NFSv4 client/server comunication on FreeBSD.


yours sincerelly,

Alexandros Perdikomatis
