* Introduction
|
|
If you share some files between your machines, your choice was probably
|
|
[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Message_Block][SMB/CIFS]], as it
|
|
is supported on nearly any platform (GNU/Linux, MacOS, Windows, iOS, Android, ...).
|
|
|
|
However, there are some limitations that you may find unacceptable (the loss
|
|
of uid/gid/permissions being really a blocking point for me).
|
|
|
|
Another option (at least on GNU/Linux) could be [[https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs][sshfs]]: It is simple to use,
|
|
and requires no special settings but an ssh access to server. It could be the
|
|
ideal sharing system for many people.
|
|
|
|
This document is about a third solution : NFSv4 coupled with Kerberos
|
|
security, on a [[https://www.debian.org/][Debian]] based system (Debian, [[https://ubuntu.com/][Ubuntu]], etc...).
|
|
|
|
* Pre-requisites
|
|
- NTP :: All machines (clients and servers) must be time-synchronized, as kerberos authentication is partly based on tickets timestamps.
|
|
- DNS server (optional) :: Kerberos may, in some configurations make use of some DNS records such as [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRV_record][SRV]] or [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TXT_record][TXT]].
|
|
A lightweight DNS server like [[https://dnsmasq.org/][dnsmasq]] is sufficient, and will avoid the administration of a full-fledged server such as [[https://www.isc.org/bind/][bind]].
|
|
|
|
* Kerberos (V5)
|
|
There are basically two major implementations of [[https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4120][Kerberos v5]] on GNU/Linux: The original [[http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/www/][MIT]] one, and the [[https://github.com/heimdal/heimdal][Heimdal]] one. There was also a GNU implementation ([[http://www.gnu.org/software/shishi/][Shishi]]), but developement looks stalled for 10+ years.
|
|
|
|
It appears that the MIT implementation may have some [[https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/dist/index.html][export restrictions]] due to U.S. regulation. Heimdal implementation (explicitely developed outside the USA, in Sweden) does not suffer such limitations. We will therefore use the "/un-regulated/" implementation.

|
** Naming
|
|
We will use the following conventions :
|
|

#+ATTR_HTML: :border 1

|
| Name | Value | Comment |

|-----------------------+--------------+-------------------------------|
|
|
| Domain name | =.lan= | Typical hostname: machine.lan |
|
|
| Kerberos realm | =LAN= | Always capital |
|
|
| Kerberos KDC 1 | =kdc1.lan= | Key Distribution Center |
|
|
| Kerberos KDC 2 | =kdc2.lan= | |
|
|
| Kerberos admin server | =kadmin.lan= | |
