NT Domain Authentication and Filer Access
by Jessica Fernandez 18 Jul '02

18 Jul '02

I am new to administering a filer via NT. Our filers have always been administered from a UNIX host. We are migrating users from a UNIX environment to an Windows NT/2000 environment. I have a user that has a domain account and needs access to the filer. Without having to create an account on the UNIX, where do I indicate validation via NT domain? I have a people share on my filer with a folder with his employee number as the folder name. After logging into the domain, he can see the filer listed in the domain. When he double clicks it, it prompts him for a username and password. He has tried what he uses to authenticate on the domain and it does not work. For our UNIX users they have accounts on our UNIX server and are authenticated that way. Your help is appreciated. Thanks. JESSICA A. S.

Re: Upgrade
by Bryan_West＠shamrockfoods.com 16 Jul '02

Sounds to me like your problem lies in the fact that your filer is not in a true Windows 2000 Mode. I believe that 6.1 adds full support for Windows 2000 Domains, but don't quote me on that. To solve you problem do the following: In your windows 2000 DNS server add a new alias or CNAME: MESIROWFINANCIA CNAME MESIROWFINANCIAL.NET This is for backwards compatibility for your old clients and servers. After the upgrade of the filer re-run CIFS SETUP Make sure you delete the computer account for the filer in your domain and have it re-created. Once completed you should be able to run CIFS DOMAININFO and get the following: DNS Domain Name: MESIROWFINANCIAL.NET Type: Windows 2000 You are also having a problem because your Domain name is longer than 15 Characters: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q226144 Windows 9x machines and any other Netbios based systems will not be able to access it using the full name. Good luck.

After trying to fix this problem for 5 hours I finally decided to roll back so that filer is up and functioning. Once I rolled back to 6.0.1r3 cifs started to work but now NFS works fine, access from NT 4.0 domain works fine but if you are logged in to windows 2000 domain you cannot access the filer even though filer is also in windows 2000 domain. When you try to access it will give you an error "The account is not authorized to log in from this station". The case is still open with Netapp and we are trying different things but so far no luck.

rename across qtrees?
by David Lee 16 Jul '02

16 Jul '02

Executive summary of question: Is there a fast, efficient way to move a directory tree from one qtree to another? (Can a rename/mv simply relink across qtrees?) Detail: (We are new to NetApp, so this might be a FAQ: if so, just point me in the right direction.) We soon need to move the home directories of a few thousand users from a couple of Sun/Solaris NFS/Samba fileservers onto a NetApp. On the old Sun fileservers, these users are subgrouped using one scheme (into about 100 subgroups); on the new NetApp they'll be redistributed into about five qtrees. Ideally, we would simply pull them across the network (a long evening's work!) dumping them into one qtree on the NetApp. The second step would be to redistribute them into their new qtrees and, for us, conceptually straightforward because the homedirectory names can be pattern-matched into corresponding qtrees. In UNIX-speak, the equivalent of: mv qtree_tmp/<...>/dir_pattern_1 qtree_a mv qtree_tmp/<...>/dir_pattern_2 qtree_b (about five commands, one per qtree). In UNIX-land, a "mv" within a volume is a fast operation, simply relinking from one parent directory into another; whereas an "mv" across volumes is (of necessity, of course) a much larger data-copying operation. On the NetApp/WAFL is such a move across qtrees a simple relink or is it a data-copying operation? Is there a NetApp command to move/rename a directory-tree? If so, what? Not having found a NetApp command, I experimented with an "mv" from a UNIX box which had the volume NFS-mounted. But this took a long time so, I presume, was doing a data-copy, rather than relink. (Hope I explained that reasonably clearly!) -- : David Lee I.T.

filer CPU usage - resolution?
by Ambrose_Earle＠shamrockfoods.com 15 Jul '02

15 Jul '02

That was it. The DOS program was performing "search"es of hundreds of files in one directory. The problem became noticeable because the purge of the filers in that directory has been failing, allowing the files to accumulate. Again, the filers still have an issue handling search and the problem still occurs, but it is much less noticeable now that there are only a few dozen instead of a few hundred files involved.

CIFS Open Files
by Drew O'Donnell 15 Jul '02

15 Jul '02

We have an issue with open CIFS files on one of our filers. I would like an easy way see who has a specific file open and how to kick them out. Currently I use lock_dump command, but for some reason this will not run through RSH, so I can not redirect the results to a text file that I can search. Help, Please.... Drew

For those of you running older NetApps that might not be under NetApp service contract, remember to keep in mind that -- in addition to newer NetApp stuff -- we will always have a complete assortment of old F200, 300, 500, 600 motherboards, parts, add-ons, etc. ready to ship at low prices.
