man svcgssd (Administration système) - server-side rpcsec_gss daemon
NAME
rpc.svcgssd - server-side rpcsec_gss daemon
SYNOPSIS
rpc.svcgssd [-v] [-f] [-p pipefsdir]
DESCRIPTION
The rpcsec_gss protocol gives a means of using the gss-api generic security api to provide security for protocols using rpc (in particular, nfs). Before exchanging any rpc requests using rpcsec_gss, the rpc client must first establish a security context with the rpc server. The linux kernel's implementation of rpcsec_gss depends on the userspace daemon rpc.svcgssd to handle context establishment on the rpc server. The daemon uses files in the proc filesystem to communicate with the kernel.
OPTIONS
- -f
- Runs rpc.svcgssd in the foreground and sends output to stderr (as opposed to syslogd)
- -v
- Increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified multiple times).
