Test coverage for NFS/Kerberos #47

Closed chucklever closed 4 months ago

chucklever commented 5 months ago

The areas we are typically concerned about are performance, interoperability (spec compliance), and stability. So far we have little or no testing of Kerberos; in particular:

It's difficult to automate Kerberos testing because a KDC is necessary (could be on the NFS server host, but still needs to be configured) and keytabs need to be provisioned and distributed to all test hosts.

Scott Mayhew constructed and committed support in kdevops for the use of Kerberos during fstests runs.
