NAME
     rpc.idmapd -- NFSv4 ID <-> Name Mapper

SYNOPSIS
     rpc.idmapd [-v] [-f] [-p path] [-c path]

DESCRIPTION
     rpc.idmapd is the NFSv4 ID <-> name mapping daemon.  It provides functionality to the NFSv4 kernel client and server, to which it communi-
     cates 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.

EXAMPLES
     rpc.idmapd -f -vvv

     Runs rpc.idmapd printing all messages to console, and with a verbosity level of 3.
