Subject: [nfs-utils PATCH] systemd: add a blurb about masking rpc-gssd to the man page
Date: Tue, 25 Jul 2017 11:19:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170725151920.21760-1-smayhew@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87a83wyi00.fsf@notabene.neil.brown.name>

This is helpful for users that have a krb5.keytab but do not want to use
secure NFS.  Also fixed a typo that appears earlier on the page.
