Document URL: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Identity_Management_Guide/kerb-nfs.html Section Number and Name: Chapter 18.3.1 Step 8 "Edit the /etc/exports file and add the Kerberos information:" Describe the issue: in our documentation it describe how to export the export with sec=sys AND with sec=krb5[i|p], so it offers this for copy and paste: /export *(rw,sec=sys:krb5:krb5i:krb5p) From my point of view this is but, because it is not adding any security to your environment as any not-so-kind-user, that is not voluntarily using kerberos, can mount the share with sec=sys and as we put the star in front, nearly everyone can mount the share. I agree, that this will not be done by the automounting IPA-clients that are configured according to our further documentation, but as I said: this leaves the door really wide open, AND there is no need for it. Suggestions for improvement: change it to: /export *(rw,sec=krb5:krb5i:krb5p) Additional information:
I fixed the example.
