Once rpc_pipefs is manually mounted, then yes, rpc.gssd -fvvv works as expected and I've managed to get an NFSv4 with Kerberos mount against our NetApp filer.

On boot however I'm getting...

Starting NFSv4 id <-> name mapper [ OK ]

repeatedly, with things like Automounter starting in and around it

Finally...
Starting NFSv4 id <-> name mapper [ Fail ]

*Then* it appears to start the network, and waits an additional 60 seconds for the network (the machine in question is just connected to eth0 and gets its address from an Infoblox DHCP appliance)

Once booted /run/rpc_pipefs isn't mounted (but can be mounted manually) and idmapd (and gssd) are both not running.

Networking is up once booted, I don't know exactly what order things are coming up however.

rpc.idmapd -fvvv also requires the "-p /run/rpc_pipefs" argument which I can't spot in the /etc/init/idmapd.conf file, but perhaps this isn't anything relevant.

I'll try and reproduce these issues on a clean re-install of this machine next.

Best regards,

David
