Yes - Ubuntu currently has an nfs-utils package based on 1:1.2.2-4 (precisely
the version in squeeze), and I'm in the process of updating it to 1.2.4.

Thanks!

Oh, the original report said that the problem happened with a squeeze
server.  Only agi reported it with a lenny server.

So the originally linked patch for nfs-utils,
<http://git.linux-nfs.org/?p=steved/nfs-utils.git;a=commit;h=d6c1b35c6b40243bfd6fba2591c9f8f2653078c0>,
doesn't apply cleanly against the nfs-utils 1.2.2 in squeeze; it appears to
have some prerequisites. (The number of args to gssd_acquire_cred has
changed.)  Anyone know which commits we need here?  Or should I just rewrite
gssd_acquire_cred(NULL, GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE) to
gssd_acquire_cred(NULL)?
