RPC.IDMAPD(8) BSD System Manager's Manual RPC.IDMAPD(8)NAMErpc.idmapd — NFSv4 ID <-> Name Mapper
SYNOPSISrpc.idmapd [-v] [-f] [-p path] [-c path]
DESCRIPTIONrpc.idmapd is the NFSv4 ID <-> name mapping daemon. It provides func‐
tionality to the NFSv4 kernel client and server, to which it communicates
via upcalls, by translating user and group IDs to names, and vice versa.
The options are as follows:
-v Increases the verbosity level (can be specified multiple
times).
-f Runs rpc.idmapd in the foreground and prints all output to
the terminal.
-p path Specifies the location of the RPC pipefs to be path. The
default value is "/var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs".
-c path Use configuration file path.
-C Client-only: perform no idmapping for any NFS server, even
if one is detected.
-S Server-only: perform no idmapping for any NFS client, even
if one is detected.
EXAMPLESrpc.idmapd-f -vvv
Runs rpc.idmapd printing all messages to console, and with a verbosity
level of 3.
