ID Mapping

102 SnapServer Administrator Guide

ID Mapping

ID mapping allows users and groups that exist on Windows domains to share user

IDs with local or NIS users and groups. This results in the same permissions and

quota consumption applying to both the Windows domain user and the local or NIS

user. Example:

John Smith is a local user on a SnapServer, as well as having a user ID on a

Windows domain. John’s quota for the SnapServer has been set to 200 MB. The

administrator of the SnapServer maps the Windows domain user identification

for John Smith to the local identification for John Smith, giving both IDs access to

John’s 200 MB.

System

Permissions

Security model and permissions differ according to the method used to

create the SnapTree directory:

• From the client: If SMB, permissions will either be according to ACL

inheritance (if the parent volume root directory has the Windows

security model) or Full Access to the owning user only. Permissions for

directories created by all other protocols will be set by the client (per

the client’s umask).

• From the Administration Tool: If created in a UNIX volume, permissions

will be 777 (rwxrwxrwx). If created in a Windows/Mixed volume,

permissions will allow all users to create, delete, and change

permissions on files created inside the SnapTree, and will grant full

control to administrators.

Security

Models

Changes to a SnapTree’s security model can optionally be propagated to

the corresponding personality with a default permission to all files and

directories underneath the SnapTree.

When changing the security model on a SnapTree:

• If changing from Windows to UNIX, all files and directories will be

changed to be owned by admin and admingrp, with UNIX permissions

of 777(rwxrwxrwx).

• If changing from UNIX to Windows, files and directories will be

changed to default permissions that allow all users the ability to create

and manage their own files and directories and to access other users’

files and directories.

Mixing

SnapTrees

You can create SnapTrees of different security models on the same

volume.
