[Bug 1023051] Re: gssd ignores RPCGSSDOPTS in /etc/default/nfs-common

[Frédéric Nass]

Hi,

I spent 2 days trying hard to set NFSv4 without any GSSD log because of
this issue. It's only when I launched rpc.gssd -f -vvv manually that I
finally find my way...

As the official Ubuntu NFSv4Howto
(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NFSv4Howto) advises to set
RPCGSSDOPTS='-vvv' in /etc/default/nfs-common, I think this should
really be re-considered as a bug.

It should be easy to have the gssd.conf file consider the RPCGSSDOPTS
parameter of /etc/default/nfs-common file as are other parameters of
this file.

Title:
  gssd ignores RPCGSSDOPTS in /etc/default/nfs-common

Status in “nfs-utils” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Hi,

  transition of nfs-common SYSV init start script to upstart does not
  fully honor /etc/default/nfs-common settings. RPCGSSDOPTS is not
  passed as arguments to rpc.gssd daemon. It used to work with SYSV init
  start script.

  my nfs-common version is  1:1.2.6-2ubuntu1 (amd64), Ubuntu quantal,
  but it is present also in 12.04 version.
