Setting SLPs on a CIFS Share

If the FluidFS cluster is not joined to Active Directory, use the Administrator account to change the owner of a CIFS share. These steps might vary slightly depending on which version of Windows you are using.
To set SLPs, you must use the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) with the Shared Folder snap‐in to set permissions. Administrators can use a predefined MMC file (.msc) from the Windows Server 2000/2003/2008 start menu and add a Shared Folder snap‐in to connect to the FluidFS cluster. The MMC does not let you choose which user to connect with a remote computer. By default, it forms the connection through the user logged on to the machine. To connect through a different user:
  • If the FluidFS cluster that you are trying to manage is joined to an Active Directory, log in to the management station with <domain> \Administrator.
  • Before using MMC, connect to the FluidFS cluster by using the client VIP address in the address bar of Windows Explorer. Log in with the administrator account and then connect to MMC.
  • NOTE: You might need to reset the local administrator password first.

If there are no predefined MMC files:

  1. Select Start > Run .
  2. Type mmc and click OK. The [Console 1 ‐Console Root] window is displayed.
  3. Select File > Add/Remove Snap‐n .
  4. Select Shared Folders and click Add.
  5. In the Shared Folders window, choose Another computer and type the FluidFS cluster name (as configured in the DNS). Alternatively, you can use the client VIP.
  6. Click Finish. The new shares tree is displayed in the Console Root window.
  7. Right‐lick on the required CIFS share, and choose Properties.
  8. In the Share Properties window, click the Share Permission tab to set SLPs.
