rpc.svcgssd error during both startup and shutdown

user719216Nov 3 2010 — edited Nov 4 2010

Every time I boot my OEL5 host I see these messages:

Nov 3 11:39:49 stmoria-lnx rpc.svcgssd[2477]: ERROR: GSS-API: error in gss_acquire_cred(): Unspecified GSS failure. Minor code may provide more information - No such file or directory
Nov 3 11:39:49 stmoria-lnx rpc.svcgssd[2477]: Unable to obtain credentials for 'nfs'
Nov 3 11:39:49 stmoria-lnx rpc.svcgssd[2477]: unable to obtain root (machine) credentials
Nov 3 11:39:49 stmoria-lnx rpc.svcgssd[2477]: do you have a keytab entry for nfs/<your.host>@<YOUR.REALM> in /etc/krb5.keytab?

I see that I have no /etc/krb5.keytab. I never attempted to configure rpcsvcgssd. I apparently don't need it because the host appears to be running fine without it. I get another error at shutdown.

Should I disable rpcsvcgssd, or is there a way to properly configure it?
