  • Page 49: Windows Shares

    Windows Shares About Shares A shared resource, or share, is a local resource on a server that is accessible to Windows clients on the network. On a NAS server, it is typically a file volume or a sub-tree within a volume. Each share is assigned a name by which it is referenced on the network.

  • Page 50: Creating Shares

    How to Configure Shares The table at the top of Configure Shares panel (in the Windows Configuration folder) shows information about all existing SMB shares in the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS. This includes the share name and directories shared and information concerning Windows Workgroups only (user and group information, Read/Write password, and Read/Only password).
  • Page 51 4. Optionally, add a Comment to describe the share. 5. Select the Desktop DB Calls checkbox in the Mac Extensions section if you want to let the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS access and set Macintosh desktop database information. This speeds up Macintosh client file access and allows non- Macintosh clients to access Macintosh files on the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS.
  • Page 52 5210 NAS file ownership and access by Windows Workgroup users. In other words, the rights to a directory are determined by the share definition not by the user. The Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS assumes that the client has not authenticated any request and explicitly asks for permission through passwords for every share-connection request.

  • Page 53: How To Configure Autohome Shares

    10. In the Umask field, enter the file creation mask, if any, you want to apply to this share. The umask defines the security policy for files and directories created in Share mode. It specifies the permission bits to turn off when a file is created. The umask is defined in octal because octal numbers comprise three bits, which maps easily to the UNIX file permission representation.

  • Page 54: Figure 5-5 The Configure Autohome Shares Panel

    This is normal CIFS protocol behavior. If the user clicks on the server name or otherwise attempts to access the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS (for example, through an Explorer window), the share automatically reappears.

  • Page 55: How To Publish Shares In Ads

    After setting up ADS, you can enable ADS to publish specific Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS shares in the ADS directory. To do so, create or update Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS SMB shares and specify the share container for each share you want to publish.

In Domain, enter the Windows 2000 Domain in which ADS is running. The Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS must belong to this domain.
  • Page 58 11. In the Server field, enter the host name of the Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) server. This is the host name of the main domain controller in the ADS domain. You can leave this field blank if the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS can locate the KDC server through DNS.

  • Page 59: Figure 5-8 The Configure Name Services Panel

    Verifying Name Service Lookup Order 1. Verify that the name service lookup order for DNS is enabled and set to the desired priority. To do so, select UNIX Configuration > Configure Name Services. The Configure Name Services Panel FIGURE 5-8 The DNS Service is listed under the Hosts Order tab.

  • Page 60: Figure 5-9 The Set Up Dns Panel

    6. Select the Enable Dynamic DNS checkbox. If Dynamic DNS is not enabled, you must manually add the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS host name and IP address to DNS. Note – You must also configure the Kerberos realm and KDC in the Set Up ADS panel and your DNS server must allow dynamic updates in order for the Dynamic DNS feature to work.

  • Page 61: Figure 5-10 The Add Share Dialog Box

    8. In the DynDNS Password field, enter the password of the Dynamic DNS user. 9. Click Apply to save your changes. If you enable Dynamic DNS, the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS immediately updates DNS with its host name and IP address. Publishing Shares in ADS To publish shares in ADS: 1.
  • Page 62 8. Click Apply. Note – The folder specified must exist to publish the share in that folder. Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS does not create folders (container objects) in the ADS tree. Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS Quick Reference Manual • November 2004...

    To configure NIS: 1. In the navigation panel, select UNIX Configuration > Set Up NIS. The Set Up NIS Panel FIGURE 6-1 2. Select the Enable NIS checkbox. This creates a central database on the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS for host, user, and group information. 3.
  • Page 66 Note – You must add a period to the end of the domain name only after the -P argument. For example, if the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS is named SS2, and its NIS+ domain is sun.com, enter the following command: nisaddcred –p unix.ss2@sun.com –P ss2.sun.com.

  • Page 67: Figure 6-2 The Configure Name Services Panel

    3. In the navigation panel, select UNIX Configuration > Configure Name Services. The Configure Name Services Panel FIGURE 6-2 4.

Using the buttons, set the order in which the name services (including NIS+) are used for user, group, netgroup, and host name resolution.

  • Page 68: Figure 6-3 The Set Up Nis+ Panel

    Conversely, specifying a search path such as sun.com. instructs Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS to search only in the domain of sun when resolving names. 13. Select the Use Broadcast checkbox if you do not know the IP address of the home domain server.
  • Page 69 Setting Name Service Lookup Order The Name Service (NS) lookup order controls the sequence in which the name services are searched to resolve a query. These name services can include LDAP, NIS, NIS+, DNS, and Local. You must enable the selected services to use them for name resolution.

  • Page 70: How To Configure Hosts

    IP address, and whether or not the host is trusted. Warning – Be careful when granting trusted status to hosts. Trusted hosts have root access to the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS file system and have full read/write access to all files and directories on the system.
