CLI allows the CLI admin to grant access to an existing CIFS Storage Server to an
existing workgroup user. By default this user has read-only access to the Storage

Storage Server. This command works only when the server is joined to a
workgroup. If the server is joined to an Active Directory domain, complete
management of user access can be done from the Microsoft Management
Console MMC) tool.
