Hi,
I have a mount point definition in /etc/fstab for a NAS device
connected to my router via Ethernet that is specifying nfs interfacing.
When I first put this definition in place on F24 I was using the option
SEC=KRB5P which was working quite happily (I'm also not sure how long
ago it was that I put this definition in place). I found yesterday that
the mount point was no longer being mounted because of an invalid
option, when I removed all the options and added them back one at a
time, I found that the option that was being objected to was SEC=KRB5P.
I also found that SEC=KRB5 and SEC=KRB5I were also being rejected as
invalid even though looking at the MAN page for NFS says all three are
valid parameters. The only security option I could get to work was
SEC=SYS. The MAN page does hint at other configurations being required
to use Kerberos security, but if so, why is this required now?
How do I find out why the SEC specification I was using now no
longer works (I can't identify exactly when it stopped working) and why
the MAN pages are indicating that it is still valid?
regards,
Steve
