User quota in NIS /and NFS
by Drew O'Donnell 22 Nov '02

22 Nov '02

We have tree quotas, with user quotas inside of them. CIFS users only see what they are allocated through their user quotas, however Unix users see the entire tree quota. The quotas are being enforced and working properly on Unix hosts. I had heard that in 6.3 this would no longer be an issue, but when we tested we are getting the same result. Thanks drew

RE: Symbolic links
by Muhlestein, Mark 20 Nov '02

20 Nov '02

In versions prior to the 6.2 release, symbolic links were not allowed to leave a share. That was primarily to prevent use of symlinks to bypass share-level security. Starting with the 6.2 release, there is a way to securely follow symbolic links out of a share, or even onto another filer. Starting with the 6.2.1 release, you can also set up another way to allow symbolic links to cross out of a share to any path on the same filer, in situations where you are not worried about share-level security. Both of these capabilities are enabled by per-share options. There no limit to the number of symlinks.

Symbolic links
by Frank Smith 20 Nov '02

Any of you have any experience using symbolic links between NFS and CIFS? I'm particularly interested in peculiarities, or problems? Does this work for directories and files? Is there a limit to the number of symlinks? Thanks for your help. _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus

just to follow up for anyone interested, I found the link: http://www.nwfusion.com/reviews/2001/0416rev2.html fortunately we are using a Cisco 6509 in our setup, so the trunking of four links should not be a problem at all. thanks for all your answers! - Moritz Visit our website at http://www.ubswarburg.com This message contains confidential information and is intended only for the individual named.

RE: Root/Boot Disk(Volume?) Safety

*** Before acting on this e-mail or opening any attachment you are advised to read the disclaimer at the end of this e-mail *** FWIW we exportfs the /etc folder read only, and nightly copy across to a Win2K server (via WS-FTP PRO Sync utility) so that the folder gets onto the Win2K server backup cycle including month ends etc. That way we have an online copy, and on month end tapes in the NT space so it is restorable without having to get the Filer up first.
