Squash, Map, Host IDs to ReadyNAS IDs
Sometimes it is useful to map user IDs or group IDs on a host connected over NFS to your ReadyNAS
system to specific ReadyNAS OS user IDs and group IDs. For example, if the ReadyNAS is used to store
VMs for a host, you might want to map (squash) all of the host UIDs and GIDs to a specific ReadyNAS UID
and GID.
When a host system is running virtualization software, it is common to configure host UIDs and GIDs to the
UID and GID for the anonymous user. Because there is no default anonymous user on a ReadyNAS, when
you map UIDs and GIDs, you must also define the UID and GID for anonymous.
To map IDs to the anonymous IDs and define the anonymous IDs:
1. Log in to your ReadyNAS.
A list of shared folders and LUNs on each volume displays.
2. Select Shares > Shares.

4. Click the gear icon for the folder.
