Each UNIX user name and numerical UID can be manually entered, along with its corresponding Windows user and domain name. Users configured manually will appear as permanent in the NFS users list.

  1. Navigate to Home > File Services > User Mapping to display the User Mapping page.
  2. Click add to display the Add User Mapping page.


    The following table describes the fields and items on this page:
    Field/Item Description
    NFS v2/3 Name The NFS user account name.
    Unix ID The Unix user identifier.
    Windows Name The Windows user account name.
    Windows ID The Windows group identifier.
    NFSv4 Name The NFSv4 user name.
    Kerberos Name The Kerberos principal (of the form user@realm) for the user.
  3. Select the check box under each selection as appropriate:
    • Save to NAS server - The server relies on information you provide.
    • Discover - The server relies on information discovered from NIS servers, LDAP servers, or domain controllers for this mapping.
    • Ignore - The server will not try to retrieve that information from NIS servers, LDAP servers, or domain controllers
