Enabling NFS v4 an Ubuntu 22.04 fileserver (instead of just NFS v3)

=> ↺ Enabling NFS v4 an Ubuntu 22.04 fileserver (instead of just NFS v3)

But suppose, not hypothetically, that you want to take your NFS v3 only fileservers and make them support basic non-Kerberos NFS v4 as well, because you're in the process of moving to NFS v4 for reasons.

Linux NFS v4 idmapd domain handling and server/client agreement

=> ↺ Linux NFS v4 idmapd domain handling and server/client agreement

As mentioned in the nfsidmap(5) manual page, NFS v4 represents UIDs and GIDs as 'id@domain' strings in contexts like stat(2) results and thus, for example, 'ls -l' output (this was explained to me in a comment on this entry). If you want your NFS v4 mounts to look like your NFS v3 mounts and work transparently, the server and the client need to agree on the domain, although the exact domain probably doesn't matter. As I mentioned in my entry on enabling NFS v4, I feel that you might want to set this explicitly rather than count on Linux getting it right (on both the server and all of the clients).
