RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

RPC.IDMAPD(8)                                                 BSD System Manager's Manual                                                 RPC.IDMAPD(8)

NAME
     rpc.idmapd — NFSv4 ID <-> Name Mapper

SYNOPSIS
     rpc.idmapd [-v] [-f] [-d domain] [-p path] [-U username] [-G groupname] [-c path]

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
