NAME
nfscbd —
SYNOPSIS
nfscbd |
[-p port_number]
[-P client_principal] |
DESCRIPTION
nfscbd runs on a client using NFSv4 to handle callback
requests from the NFSv4 server. If no nfscbd is
running, NFSv4 mounts will still work, but the server will never issue Open
Delegations to the client.
One callback server and one master server are always started.
The following options are available:
-pport_number- Specifies what port# the callback server should use.
-Pclient_principal- Specifies the host based principal name to be used as the target for
callbacks over RPCSEC_GSS. For KerberosV, it must be in the client's
default keytab file. This client_principal should be the same one
specified by the
gssnameargument being used by nfsv4 mounts. If you do not specify this argument, callbacks will still work over AUTH_SYS, which is what many extant servers use even for RPCSEC_GSS mounts, as of 2009.
For example, “nfscbd -p 7654 -P
root” starts the daemon to handle callbacks on port# 7654 and
is using the host based principal
root@<client-host>.<dns-domain> as the callback target.
nfscbd listens for service requests at the
port defined by NFSV4_CBPORT in /usr/include/fs/nfs/nfs.h, unless
-p has been specified. For more information on what
callbacks and Open Delegations do, see Network File System
(NFS) Version 4 Protocol, RFC3530.
EXIT STATUS

and >0 if an error occurs.
