I Looked up Kernel Key Management and saw that /proc/keys was needed to hold the key pairs used by the kernel. From Google'ng the following kernel option needs to be enabled CONFIG_KEYS_DEBUG_PROC_KEY or /proc/keys does not get created. I checked /boot/config-3.13.0-24-generic and that option is not enabled. I checked this on both Centos 6.5/7 and Mageia and they are enabled and /proc/keys exist, nfsidmap -c works.
