gssproxy: apache httpd as nfs-client? centos7

  • 772

When Apache httpd attempts to access a user directory automounted with sec=krb5p, and presumably other sec=krb options, gssproxy issues a failure message and the web server replies with 403 Forbidden. The debug option on gssproxy has not been sufficiently illuminating.

To rule out none RPCGSS issues, the 403 is not issued when a valid KRB5CC owned by uidNumber 48 (apache) is present in /tmp, and the web server will display the appropriate page. However, this is due to the behavior of rpc.gssd. gssproxy still issues the same failure message.

gssproxy: gp_rpc_execute: executing 6 (GSSX_ACQUIRE_CRED) for service "nfs-client", euid: 0, socket: (null)
gssproxy: gssproxy[639]: (OID: { 1 2 840 113554 1 2 2 }) Unspecified GSS failure.  Minor code may provide more information, No credentials cache found

  1. I used strace to see that gssproxy was looking for the keytab in /var/kerberos/krb5/user/48/client.keytab. I also needed to set the selinux context:

    chcon -t krb5_keytab_t /var/kerberos/krb5/user/48/client.keytab
ls -lZ /var/kerberos/krb5/user/48/client.keytab
-r--------. apache apache unconfined_u:object_r:krb5_keytab_t:s0 /var/kerberos/krb5/user/48/client.keytab

    It appears that the HTTP stanza is taking precedence over the nfs-client stanza for UID 48.
