Using this + option allows the root user to access the NFS space using any + Kerberos principal, rather than always using the machine + credentials. However, its use also requires that root manually + authenticate before attempting a mount with Kerberos. + + When rpc.gssd uses machine credentials, the selection algorithm has + been changed. Instead of simply using the first "nfs/*" key in the + keytab, the keytab is now searched for keys in the following + defined order: + + root/@REALM + nfs/@REALM + host/@REALM + root/@REALM + nfs/@REALM + host/@REALM
