DESCRIPTION¶
rpc.idmapd is the NFSv4 ID <-> name mapping daemon. It
provides functionality to the NFSv4 kernel client and server, to which it
communicates via upcalls, by translating user and group IDs to names, and vice
versa.
The options are as follows:
- -v
- Increases the verbosity level (can be specified multiple
times).
- -f
- Runs rpc.idmapd in the foreground and
prints all output to the terminal.
- -d
domain
- Set domain to domain. This is used
internally by NFSv4 and is typically assigned by the system administrator.
By default, domain is set to be the FQDN of the
host, minus the hostname.
- -p
path
- Specifies the location of the RPC pipefs to be
path. The default value is
"/var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs".
- -U
username
- Specifies the NFSv4 nobody user to be
username. The default value is
"nobody".
- -G
groupname
- Specifies the NFSv4 nobody group to be
groupname. The default value is
"nobody".
- -c
path
- Use configuration file path.
- -C
- Client-only: perform no idmapping for any NFS server, even
if one is detected.
- -S
- Server-only: perform no idmapping for any NFS client, even
if one is detected.
EXAMPLES¶
rpc.idmapd -d "citi.umich.edu" -f -vvv
Runs
rpc.idmapd with the domain "citi.umich.edu" in
the foreground, printing all messages to console, and with a verbosity level
of 3.
