Sans Digital – EN104L+(B) Admin Guide

Network Settings - UNIX Networking

In order to allow UNIX clients to access EN104L+(B) logical volumes, NFS (Network File System) service must be enabled by checking the

Enable NFS service check box.

Synchronizing with NIS server will place all the users and user groups stored in the NIS server as local users and local user groups into

EN104L+(B). The NAS will communicate with the NIS server to update the user and user group list. In addition, any access attempts made by

the NIS users to the NAS logical volume will be authenticated by the UID and password stored in the NIS server.

To synchronize with Network Information Service (NIS)

1. Check Enable NFS service check box

2. Check Enable NIS service check box

3. Enter the domain name in the NIS Domain Name field

4. Enter the NIS server name in the NIS Server Name field

To apply changes, click on Apply at the bottom of the screen. To exit without applying changes and return to the home page, click on

Cancel.

NOTE: EN104L+(B) seeks and lists users and groups in the order of Local, NIS, and ADS/PDC. In the event where you have UID

duplicated, above order will be used to list and accept duplicated users and groups.

CAUTION: When using SFM configuration, ENABLE NIS synchronization before turning on SFM. If NIS synchronization should require

disabling, DISABLE SFM before disabling NIS synchronization.
