11 The rpcsec_gss protocol gives a means of using the gss-api generic security
12 api to provide security for protocols using rpc (in particular, nfs). Before
13 exchanging any rpc requests using rpcsec_gss, the rpc client must first
14 establish a security context with the rpc server. The linux kernel's
15 implementation of rpcsec_gss depends on the userspace daemon
17 to handle context establishment on the rpc server. The
18 daemon uses files in the proc filesystem to communicate with
26 in the foreground and sends output to stderr (as opposed to syslogd)
29 Increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified multiple times).
32 If the rpcsec_gss library supports setting debug level,
33 increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified multiple times).
