I have a filesystem that is used by Windows users and Unix users concurrently.

A good portion of the users have the same account in both namespaces AD and OpenLDAP on the Unix side.

Even though the common name of the account is the same they are different accounts.

So here is the problem, I am looking for a way to force ALL windows users to create files as a specfic Unix group.

Usermapper is configured and works fine, but it would be so much easier to be able to set the "sticky" bit on a directory in the Celerra filesystem.

Is there a way to force this type of behavior through the Celerra filesystem?

Or is there a way to set the Posix GID on a Windows group and have that honered in the filesystem on the Unix side?

So simple in theory but complex in practice!
