NAME
       gssd - generates and validates GSS-API tokens for kernel RPC

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lib/gss/gssd

DESCRIPTION
       gssd  is the user mode daemon that operates between the kernel rpc and the Generic Security Service Application Program Interface (GSS-API)
       to generate and validate GSS-API security tokens. In addition, gssd maps the GSS-API principal names to the local user and  group  ids.	By
       default, all groups that the requested user belongs to will be included in the grouplist credential. gssd is invoked by the Internet daemon
       inetd(1m) the first time that the kernel RPC requests GSS-API services.

EXIT STATUS
       The following exit values are returned:

       0	       Successful completion.

       >0	       An error occurred.

NOTES
       The following signal has the specified effect when sent to the server process using the kill(1) command:

       SIGHUP

	   gssd rereads the gsscred.conf(4) options.

       The gssd service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:

       svc:/network/rpc/gss:default

       Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(1M). Responsibil-
       ity for initiating and restarting this service is delegated to inetd(1M). Use inetadm(1M) to make configuration changes and to view config-
       uration information for this service. The service's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.
