Hi all,

I re-decided to move my nfs server from solaris to fbsd. So I am using test machines to see if it works. I have my kerberos realm configured, and seems to work fine, both nfsserver and nfsclient have their host and nfs keytabs stored in /etc/krb5.keytab files, and I am following the configuration instructions from http://code.google.com/p/macnfsv4/wiki/FreeBSD8KerberizedNFSSetup that rick was kind enough to write (thanx rick!). Before analyzing my problem and configuration steps further, let me state the reason for this email: I am not able to access an nfsv3 mounted filesystem when mounted with sys=krb5 (or krb5i, krb5p whatsoever) by following rick's instructions, whereas in the past I had no such problem.

To be more specific:
Last time I was playing with the configuration most things worked fine (Feb 2010), but now things seem a bit different, and I am not sure whether I have forgotten something fundamental on my configuration or something has changed since I updated both my machines (client and server) to the latest sources:

nfs-server:
# uname -a
FreeBSD fbsdclient.ee.auth.gr 8.1-STABLE FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE #1: Wed Sep 15 17:07:13 EEST 2010 r...@fbsdclient.ee.auth.gr:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SERVER i386

nfs-client:
# uname -a
FreeBSD filesrv.ee.auth.gr 8.1-STABLE FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE #0: Fri Sep 10 13:08:06 EEST 2010 r...@filesrv.ee.auth.gr:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CLIENT amd64

I have my two usual test-users on my test-machines, mamalos and testakis, who both exist as kerberos principals too; their uids and gids are the same on all machines. I am able to kinit to any of them on my machines and acquire a valid kerberos ticket, which makes me assume that kdc runs nicely.

fbsd-client's /etc/rc.conf reads:

rpcbind_enable="YES"
mountd_enable="YES"
mountd_flags="-e"
nfs_server_enable="YES"
nfs_client_enable="YES"
nfsv4_server_enable="YES"
nfsuserd_enable="YES"
gssd_enable="YES"

and fbsd-server's /etc/rc.conf reads:
rpcbind_enable="YES"
nfs_client_flags="-n 4"
rpc_statd_enable="YES"
rpc_lockd_enable="YES"
#nfsd_flags="-e"
gssd_enable="YES"
nfsuserd_enable="YES"
nfsclient_enable="YES"
# nfs server
nfs_server_enable="YES"
mountd_enable="YES"
#mountd_flags="-e"


Don't get confused that both machines have nfsd enabled (the client is used as an experimental nfsv4 server too), and I think that this should not be an issue with regard to my problem (on the other hand, nobody knows...).

the server's kernel-config reads:

options         KGSSAPI
device          crypto
options         NFSCL

and the client's kernel-config reads:

options NFSD #(don't forget that the client works as an nfsv4 server too)
options         KGSSAPI
device          crypto

Lastly, the server's /etc/exports reads:
/exports    -alldirs -sec=krb5

on the server:
# ls -la /exports
total 10
drwxr-xr-x   5 root      wheel  - 512 17 Feb  2010 ./
drwxr-xr-x  22 root      wheel  - 512 15 Sep 19:33 ../
drwxr-xr-x   3 root      wheel  - 512  5 Feb  2010 m/
drwxr-xr-x   2 mamalos   wheel  - 512 16 Sep 15:43 mamalos/
drwx------   2 testakis  wheel  - 512  4 Feb  2010 testakis/



on the client:
# klist
klist: No ticket file: /tmp/krb5cc_0
# mount  mount_nfs -onfsv3,sec=krb5 server:/exports /mnt
# mount
/dev/da0s1a on / (ufs, local, soft-updates)
devfs on /dev (devfs, local, multilabel)
server:/exports on /mnt (nfs)
# ls -la /mnt

ls: /mnt: Permission denied
# exit
$ id

$ klist

$ ls -la /mnt

$ kinit mamalos

$ klist

Sep 16 16:27:51  Sep 17 02:26:49  nfs/ser...@example

And this is where I don't understand what I have done wrong...
If I use sec=krb5:sys in my /etc/exports, and type mount_nfs -onsfsv3,sec=krb5 ...blabla... on the client, everything seems to work ok, but then again no kerberos "protection" is applicable (I am able to rw in /mnt/mamalos folders as mamalos without having obtained any ticket).

I assume that I must have forgotten to include something very fundamental in my configs, but my head is stuck, so if someone has an idea...

Thank you all for your time in advance,

regards,

mamalos
