See the multi-protocol and user mapping manuals

Hi Rainer

i have read through the doc but its a complicated issue

i want to use usermapper so i have just changed the policy to mixed

i then did the nas_fs -translate

on the CIFS side i can see the unix user and i have given them full control- do you see any issue with that ?

thanks

paul

hi rainer

i have configured an ntxmap file and put in one entry *:adaccountname:=:unix username thats trying to access the nfs share

i used the server_file put and that came back ok done

but when i check the secmap listing i dont see any ntxmap entry, any idea's where i'm going wrong ?

Thanks

Paul

Yes, multi-protocol and user mapping is more complicated than single protocol

I’m afraid there is no fast path without learning and actual hands-on

The relationship between user mapping and access policies isn’t that simple.

If its just one Unix user and you don’t care about the security you could map that user ID to root on the NFS client – Linux should be able to do that.

Then you can stay with native access policy and treat it like a single protocol system

You might need to clear old entries in the secmap for that account

Could be uppercase vs lowercase

You only get an entry if that account has connected

Check the ordering of user mapping methods
