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 +.B rpc.svcgssd +to handle context establishment on the rpc server. The +daemon uses files in the proc filesystem to communicate with +the kernel. + +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.B -f +Runs +.B rpc.svcgssd +in the foreground and sends output to stderr (as opposed to syslogd) +.TP +.B -v +Increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified multiple times). + +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR rpc.gssd(8), +.SH AUTHORS +.br +Dug Song +.br +Andy Adamson +.br +Marius Aamodt Eriksen +.br +J.
