Customize idmapd.conf and other options

[xhejtman]

Any chance for support to set Local-Realms and Cache-Expiration in /etc/idmapd.conf?
Currently only Domain is supported.
Also customizing GSSDOPTS in defaults config would be appreciated.

Hey @xhejtman,

i would definitely appreciate a pull request for this feature - maybe you can do this?

Best regards,

Hi, thanks! I will have a look at it.

[derdanne]

I have created the branch https://github.com/derdanne/puppet-nfs/tree/customize_idmapd_and_other_options and applied the patches

[derdanne]

Basically this looks good. I have added some small changes:

-> fix some minor syntax errors
-> set some variables to undef if not set
-> add the new variables in params for all ostypes
-> rename the variable $client_gssd_service to $client_gssd_service_name
-> add the option to enable/disable management of "Nobody" mapping (default disable -> compatibility)

Thanks, hopefully it arrives soon released.

Btw, there is a bug in debian 8 in systemd, if you restart rpcbind service, e.g., due to OPTIONS changes, sometimes rpcbind is not running anymore and systemd thinks it is active (but dead). However, service restart does nothing in this case, one has to stop and start the service. Not sure how to workaround this.

Hey, i need to add spec tests and documentation as well before this can be merged.
