Managing User Mappings between Windows and UNIX/
Linux Users
You can define mappings between Windows users in Active Directory and UNIX/Linux users in LDAP or

inherits the Windows user permissions, depending on the direction of the mapping and the NAS volume
security style.
User Mapping Policies
The user mapping policies include:
Automatic mapping: Automatically map all Windows users in Active Directory to the identical UNIX/
Linux users in LDAP or NIS, and map all UNIX/Linux users to the identical Windows users. Automatic
mapping is disabled by default.
Mapping rules: Define mappings between specific Windows users in Active Directory and the
corresponding UNIX/Linux users in LDAP or NIS. These specific mapping rules take precedence over
automatic mapping. You can select the direction of the mapping — the mapping can go in one

Mapping is allowed in one direction:
* Windows users to a UNIX/Linux user
* UNIX/Linux user to a Windows user
