Indicating the computer to use for the NFS user mapping server

During the processes of starting and installing the storage server, the name localhost is assigned
by default to the computer. It is assumed that the storage server is the computer that will be used for
user name mapping.
If there are other mapping servers and a machine other than the localhost that will store user name
mappings, the name of that computer must be indicated, as detailed below:
1. Use Remote Desktop to access the Management Console, click File Sharing, Microsoft

for NFS user interface.
2. In the Computer name box of the user-mapping screen, type the name of the computer designated
for user mapping and authentication.
3. Localhost is the computer name assigned by default on the storage server. To control user mapping
from a different computer, enter the name of that computer.
NOTE:
If a machine other than the localhost is to be used, make sure that the user name mapping service is
installed and running on that machine.
NOTE:
If the authentication software is not installed on all domain controllers that have user name mappings,
including Primary Domain Controllers, Backup Domain Controllers, and Active Directory Domains, then
domain user name mappings will not work correctly.
