from a linux client are possible, but we aren't really
conformant with the spec (for example, we don't use kerberos

- timely renewal in case an existing connection's retry timeouts

- Therefore, lack of this feature may cause future clients to

- Incomplete backchannel support: incomplete backchannel gss
support and no support for BACKCHANNEL_CTL mean that
callbacks (hence delegations and layouts) may not be
available and clients confused by the incomplete
implementation may fail.
- - Server reboot recovery is unsupported; if the server reboots,
- clients may fail.
- We do not support SSV, which provides security for shared
client-server state (thus preventing unauthorized tampering
with locks and opens, for example). It is mandatory for
servers to support this, though no clients use it yet.
