User Management

User Management
This section describes user management for NAS connection with the ETERNUS DX. User management for NAS
clients is performed with an authentication server or with local user authentication.
Windows (CIFS) Environment
When the Active Directory authentication server is used, access can be controlled based on the registered
user accounts in the authentication server.
When the authentication server is not used, local users/local groups can be created. Access is available on a
per local user/local group basis. For details, refer to
UNIX/Linux (NFS) Environment
When the LDAP authentication server (such as OpenLDAP) is used, access can be controlled based on the
registered user accounts in the authentication server. When NFS access is used, the folders that the
administrator mounts can be accessed by all users.

Authentication Server

An authentication server can be used to control access to the ETERNUS DX NAS file system.
Connect the authentication server to the network in the NAS environment. Prepare the Active Directory
authentication server to perform access via Windows or prepare the LDAP authentication server to perform
access via UNIX/Linux.
