[gpfsug-discuss] CES SMB and multi user mounts

Hello leo,

we're using this in /etc/fstab:

//<server/<share /some/directory cifs
multiuser,sec=krb5,vers=3,user,domain=<domain>

We mount these shares with root rights after we have a valid krb
machine ticket (klist -k).

Afterwards users are able to access mounted shares with their krb user
ticket.


You may have to tune /etc/request-key.d/cifs.spnego.conf

create  cifs.spnego    * * /usr/sbin/cifs.upcall %k
create      dns_resolver   * * /usr/sbin/cifs.upcall %k



Kind regards
Timm
