Kerberos 5 setup for NFSv4

The following is only necessary if you wish to use Kerberos 5 (krb5). (Which is a good idea.)

To use Kerberos with NFS you need to setup the server and the client on your realm.

We assume you have a Kerberos KDC installed somewhere and have configured Kerberos on your client and server. This Kerberos Infrastructure HOWTO is a good reference to configure and start the Kerberos KDC.


Server Setup

The server needs to be identified to the KDC with a principal of

nfs/<fqdn>@REALM

On the nfs-server you can run kadmin and authenticate as kadmin/admin:

# kadmin
kadmin: addprinc -randkey nfs/myclient.mydomain
kadmin: ktadd nfs/myclient.mydomain

On Debian you should enable the nfs server gssapi daemon in /etc/defaults/nfs-kernel-server :

NEED_SVCGSSD=yes

check /etc/idmapd.conf
In the [General] section the Domain value should be the real value of your domain. The value "localdomain" is not a key meaning "your local domain" it is a misguided attempt at documentation!

 Domain = your-domain.com

If your REALM is not the same as your lowercased dns domain you can add:

 Local-Realm = <REALM>

(This is not documented)

In May 2010: according to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=568771 You should edit /etc/krb5.conf and put the following in the [libdefaults] section:

 allow_weak_crypto=true

This is a WIP and may be resolved around 2.6.35+

Restart nfs-kernel-server and nfs-common

Client Setup

The client must present some kind of principal at mount time. This can be a user or an entry in the keytab; either a host/<fqdn>@REALM principal or an nfs/<fqdn>@REALM principal

Both the id-mapper daemon and the gssapi daemon should be running: This may be picked up by initscripts parsing /etc/fstab or forced in /etc/defaults/nfs-common:

 NEED_IDMAPD=yes
 NEED_GSSD=yes

Under Debian you may find adding debug options in /etc/defaults/nfs-common helps:

 RPCGSSDOPTS="-vvv -rrr"

(May 2010): The client also needs the allow_weak_crypto in /etc/krb5.conf [libdefaults]:

 allow_weak_crypto=true

check /etc/idmapd.conf
Same as the server... if you get user-id mapping issues check this is correct.

Restart nfs-common

Mounting

NFSv4 can use Kerberos security to provide:

  • authentication
  • integrity
  • privacy

These are specified on the client side using:

  • sec=krb5
  • sec=krb5i
  • sec=krb5p

respectively. eg:

mount -t nfs4 -o sec=krb5p nfs-server.domain.com:/ /nfs4/

See Exporting Directories section for more details on the exports file syntax.

The constraint to use -e des-cbc-crc:normal for keytab entries for nfs/<fqdn> principals is not needed:

 (1.8+dfsg~alpha1-1

 This version of MIT Kerberos disables DES and 56-bit RC4 by default.
 These encryption types are generally regarded as weak; defeating them
 is well within the expected resources of some attackers.  However,
 some applications, such as OpenAFS or Kerberized NFS, still rely on
 DES.  To re-enable DES support add allow_weak_crypto=true to the
 libdefaults section of /etc/krb5.conf

Warnings

Some warnings about Kerberos:

  1. The system clocks on your machines must be set to the correct time; install ntp to make sure this is the case.
  2. The /etc/hosts file must list the fully-qualified domain name as the first entry on the line with the machine's IP address, and the machine's name must not be included on the localhost line.
  3. Do not us uppercase characters for machine names in Kerberos and/or the host naming solution DNS. This is not a good solution fpr NFS Kerberos only
  4. At present NFS using Kerberos authentication is not able to work with multiple network interfaces on the same machine

FAQ

  • Issue: Mounting a nfs volume gives an error message and the syslog or dmesg shows
 "RPC: Couldn't create auth handle (flavor 390003)"
  • Solution: Try 'modprobe rpcsec_gss_krb5' on the client
  • Issue: Enabling users other than root to access the nfs4 mount, i.e. bob. The syslog (/var/log/messages) on the client will show something like "WARNING: error from gss_acquire_cred for user with uid 3333 (No credentials cache found)" and "WARNING: Failed while limiting krb5 encryption types for user with uid 3333".
  • Solution: Create the Kerberos principal for bob using kadmin or kadmin.local on the KDC. Then on the client, as user bob, run kinit.
  • Issue: Mounting gives permission denied. Starting rpc.gssd with verbose output (-vv) gives failed credentials for hostname of server (not FQDN). Nslookup gives FQDN for reverse-lookup. dig -x <IP> gives only hostname (probably BIND9 configuration problem).
  • Solution: Create entries with FQDN /etc/hosts (or solve BIND9 configuration problem. How?).
