Creating and managing user and group mappings
To set up and manage user name mappings:
1. From the WebUI, select Shares, Sharing Protocols. Select NFS Protocol and then click
Properties. The NFS Properties menu is displayed.
2. In the NFS Properties Menu, select User and Group Mappings. The User and Group
Mappings page is displayed.
There are four tabs in the User and Group Mappings page:
■
General information—Sets the mapping information source, which is either NIS or
password and group files.
■
Simple Mapping—Indicates whether simple mappings are being used.
■
Explicit User Mapping—Lists exceptional user mappings that will override the
simple user mappings.
■
Explicit Group Mapping—Lists exceptional group mappings that will override the
simple group mappings.
Each of these tabs is discussed in the following sections.
