Yes... the README is dreadfully out of date... although most of it has
not changed but a lot has... esp when it comes to the systemd set up..
although the systemd/README is pretty accurate... Maybe a point to
the systemd/README in the top README would be good. 

What script did you have to add 'auth_rpcgss' to? 
It should be automatically  be loaded when the sunrpc 
module is loaded.

Thanks for taking a look!

steved.
