Hi,

Is there any detailed documentation on the Kerberos NFS mods that goes beyond
the Appendix of the Usenix paper? I am looking at Kerberizing NFS for 4.3BSD
Reno and need to know what the exact server system call arguments and semantics
are, plus details on the mount RPC changes.

One specific additional question.
How does the server deal with too many <IP-ADDR,UID> --> <cred> mapping entries.
Is there a fixed limit and when that is exceeded the syscall fails? Or is it
handled as an LRU cache, or...?

Thanks in advance for any help, rick
ps: Please reply to rick@snowhite.cis.uoguelph.ca as I just joined the mailing
    list and may not be on it yet.
