Oh, hm, I was mislead, this is using systemd already, it's just shipping the upstart files along for the ride.
So: /lib/systemd/system/rpc-gssd.service reads /run/sysconfig/nfs-utils, which is generated by /lib/systemd/system/nfs-config.service by calling /usr/lib/systemd/scripts/nfs-utils_env.sh. That wrapper /usr/lib/systemd/scripts/nfs-utils_env.sh sources /etc/default/nfs-common and /etc/default/nfs-kernel-server, but doesn't handle rpc.gssd options. In fact, it has this comment: # the following are supported by the systemd units, but not exposed in default files ... # echo RPCGSSDARGS=\"$RPCGSSDARGS\" So even if you define RPCGSSDARGS in one of those /etc/default/nfs* files, it won't be passed along to the systemd service. Why was it decided like that? No idea :/ I guess the answer to my question in #10 is "use a systemd service override and add the -D option there"? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1697339 Title: rpc.gssd performs reverse DNS by default (regardless of -D flag) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/1697339/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
