Hello NFS-list,

Section A5 of the Linux NFS FAQ (Can I use Kerberos authentication with NFS
on Linux?) is somewhat confusing as it the Answer is not clearly yes or no.

So whats the current Answer to this simple Question:

Is ist possible to use RPCSEC GSSAPI in conjunction with NFSv3 on Linux
Clients and Servers?

I managed to use it in conjunction with NFSv4, but NFSv4 does not seem to be
stable enough for production use. I had machine lockups even on a
test-installation I have been using :(

Sven
