Giving storage access to Windows domain users and groups:
You must first
join the NAS Gateway 300 to the Windows domain. You can use the Windows 2000
for NAS user interface to do this. Start the Windows 2000 for NAS user interface,
and then do the following:
1. Click
Network
.
2. Click
Identification
.
3. Select the radio button labeled
Domain
, and specify the name of the domain
being joined.
4. Specify a user name and password that can be used to log on to the domain.
5. Click
OK
.
6. Shut down and restart the NAS Gateway 300.
Users and groups already defined in the domain can now be given access to any
file shares that you create on the NAS Gateway 300. If you need to add new users
and groups to the domain, consult the online documentation on the PDC for
information on performing this procedure, or if you are not the administrator of the
domain (PDC), contact the domain administrator to have the users and groups
defined.
If your storage is also going to be accessed by UNIX or UNIX-based clients and
servers, continue with “Defining UNIX users and groups”. Otherwise, continue with
“Creating shares” on page 49.
Defining UNIX users and groups
This section describes how to set up UNIX users and groups to access the NAS
Gateway 300 storage using the Network File System (NFS) protocol.
Support for NFS is provided in the NAS Gateway 300 by a preloaded and
preconfigured software component, Microsoft Services for UNIX. The levels of NFS
supported by Services for UNIX, and in turn the NAS Gateway 300, are NFS
Versions 2 and 3. Any client or server that is using an NFS software stack
supporting NFS Version 2 or NFS Version 3, regardless of the operating system,
should be able to connect to the NAS Gateway 300 and access its storage through
NFS.
You administer NFS file shares and other attributes with standard Windows
administration tools, including those provided as part of the IBM NAS desktop and
the Microsoft Windows 2000 for NAS user interface. Additional configuration of the
User Name Mapping component of Services for UNIX, which maps the UNIX user
name space to the Windows user name space, is required to support NFS security.
Consult the online documentation for Services for UNIX for more information on
configuring User Name Mapping. To view the online documentation for Services for
UNIX on the NAS Gateway 300:
1. From the NAS Gateway 300 desktop, click the
IBM NAS Admin
icon.
2. On the left pane of the IBM NAS Admin console, expand
File Systems
.
3. Expand
Services for UNIX
.
4. Select any of the items that appear under Services for UNIX.
5. Click anywhere on the right pane of the IBM NAS Admin console, and then
press the F1 key to bring up the online documentation for Services for UNIX in
a separate window.
