Confirmed in bionic. This seems to be a known issue and needs further investigation to see if it was fixed upstream of if there is a workaround available. maybe via gss-proxy? Have to check.

Set up FreeIPA server on CentOS 7 per default docs 2. Set up two Ubuntu 16.04 hosts, one `server.domain.tld` one `client.domain.tld`, join both to FreeIPA 3. Create principals `nfs/server.domain.tld` and `nfs/client.domain.tld` 4. Create user in FreeIPA `testuser` 5. Install `nfs-kernel-server` on `server.domain.tld` and share `/srv/nfs4`: `/srv/nfs4 *(sec=krb5i,rw,fsid=root,crossmnt,no_subtree_check,root_squash)`, run `exportfs -rav` 6. Create some files and directories in `/srv/nfs4` owned by `testuser:testuser` 7. Install `nfs-common` on `client.domain.tld` and mount: `mount -t nfs4 server.domain.tld:/ /srv/nfs4` 8. Log in as `testuser` and `kinit testuser` if necessary 9. `cd /srv/nfs4; ls /srv/nfs4; touch /srv/nfs4/some_file` # Expected result Changing of working directory to `/srv/nfs4`, listing directory contents and creating new file # Actual result `Permission denied` # Reason After quite some time debugging I found that `gssd` in Ubuntu 16.04 cannot read kernel persistent keyrings for kerberos' ccache. Removing the line `default_ccache_name = KEYRING:persistent:%{uid}` from `/etc/krb5.conf` solved the issue. This config file is created by `ipa-client-install` in `configure_krb5_conf()` after `#configure KEYRING CCACHE if supported`.
