Setting NFS_SECURITY_GSS and NFS4_SUPPORT does not impose the use of
GSS and NFSv4, it only supports it.
i.e. it starts various daemons that are needed for those services to work.
You still get to have a NFSv3 server running even if you select NFS4_SUPPORT.
NFS4_SUPPORT causes the "rpc.idmapd" daemon to be run. This one daemon is
needed
for both server and client. So it would make no sense having separate setting
for server and client.
NFS_SECURITY_GSS does do something slightly different for server and client,
but having separate switches wouldn't help a lot. The key issue here is "have
you configured kerberos on your computer". If so, you may as well start
the gss daemon for whichever of 'nfs' and 'nfsd' you are using. If not,
starting neither daemon is best.
So: you should be able to do what you want by setting both options
to 'yes'.
The nfs3 server without 'gss' should still work fine.
If you try and find something is actually not working, please re-open
this bug.
