OneFS v8.2.2.0 and have Active Directory Authentication

Hello,

We are using Isilon OneFS v8.2.2.0 and have Active Directory Authentication setup.

We login with the domain user  user@domain.com

We are seeking to use only the user name alias to login without the domain suffix.  E.g.  'user-alias-name'   only

Also, when we login with AD user, we don't reach the user home directory:

Error: Could not chdir to home directory /ifs/home/ABCCompany/abcuser: No such file or directory

Please advise, on how to get the above two issues straightened out successfully in our Isilon.

Hello Bhuppi1,

Here is a link to the administrator guide and if you look on page 80, I would double check that you have your configuration set correctly. https://dell.to/3FVdfuC

Hi Sam,

Thanks for the link.  Yes, we did configured it using this documentation and are able to authenticate.

However, we are seeking users should authenticate to AD, with their ‘sAMAccountName’  and not with ‘UserPrincipalName’
Example:

User:  DOMAIN.CORP\abcuser
sAMAccountName:  abcuser
UserPrincipalName:  abcuser@domain.com.in

So, in this example we want to use ‘abcuser’  for the login and its correct authentication happening in AD.

Hi Josh,

Yes, I guess it is mapped to the Primary Domain. Any command to check that from Isilon.

Yeah, we want to avoid using the email address(UPN lines up with email address here).

We want to use just that small alias name.  This needs to be doable, I guess.

Thank You.

Is it mapped to the primary domain? I don’t see any settings on the unit that allows it to specify which type of name it is getting from active directory.
