Subject: AES support for RPCSEC_GSS?
Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2008 02:20:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080212012007.GA6993@goelette.ens.fr> (raw)
Hi,
in all the faqs it is said that there is no working support for
anything else than DES which is a bit outdated and not secure
nowadays.
It seemed to me that there was some code in the nfs-utils which
would do some security negociation (somewhere around utils/gssd/krb5_util.c),
but the kernel had nothing to support that.
I suppose this will be the last thing to be done once the security features
are working with the three versions of NFS.
What are the missing features in this field, and would it be difficult to
add support for other encryption schemes?
Regards,
Quentin Godfroy
