.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B "rpc.gssd [-f] [-n] [-k keytab] [-p pipefsdir] [-v] [-r] [-d ccachedir]"

.SH 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
To be more consistent with other implementations, we now look for
specific keytab entries. The search order for keytabs to be used
for "machine credentials" is now:
+.br
+ <HOSTNAME>$@<REALM>
.br
root/<hostname>@<REALM>
.br
nfs/<anyname>@<REALM>
.br
host/<anyname>@<REALM>
+.IP
+If this search order does not use the correct key then provide a
+keytab file that contains only correct keys.
+.TP
+.B -l
+Tells
+.B rpc.gssd
+to limit session keys to Single DES even if the kernel supports stronger
+encryption types. Service ticket encryption is still governed by what
+the KDC believes the target server supports. This way the client can
+access a server that has strong keys in its keytab for ticket decryption
+but whose kernel only supports Single DES.
+.IP
+The alternative is to put only Single DES keys in the server's keytab
+and limit encryption types for its principal to Single DES on the KDC
+which will cause service tickets for this server to be encrypted using
+only Single DES and (as a side-effect) contain only Single DES session
+keys.
+.IP
+This legacy behaviour is only required for older servers
+(pre nfs-utils-1.2.4). If the server has a recent kernel, Kerberos
+implementation and nfs-utils it will work just fine with stronger
+encryption.
+.IP
+.B Note:
+This option is only available with Kerberos libraries that
+support setable encryption types.
.TP
.B -p path
Tells
If the rpcsec_gss library supports setting debug level,
increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified multiple times).
.TP
+.B -R realm
+Kerberos tickets from this
+.I realm
+will be preferred when scanning available credentials cache files to be
+used to create a context. By default, the default realm, as configured
+in the Kerberos configuration file, is preferred.
+.TP
.B -t timeout
Timeout, in seconds, for kernel gss contexts. This option allows you to force
new kernel contexts to be negotiated after
