User And Group Management - HP StorageWorks S1000 - NAS Administration Manual

User and Group Management

The HP StorageWorks NAS 1000s supports a variety of file sharing protocols for file access
over a network, including:
Access to shares requires a network logon (username and password). It follows that a
fundamental part of managing shares involves managing the users and groups that have access.
There are two system environments for users and groups: workgroup and domain. Because
users and groups in a domain environment are managed through standard Windows NT or
Windows 2000 domain administration methods, this document discusses only local users and
groups, which are stored and managed on the NAS device. For information on managing users
and groups on a domain, refer to the domain documentation.
The following topics are addressed in this chapter:
