if you have jjones in both nis and the domain ctlr, ontap will authenticate jjones to nis and then the domain ctlr and ontap will use the ntfs perms for that access. it does work with individuals, but not with groups. so a gid will not map to an ntfs group. i am ontap 5.36.r2.

do you use NIS?

According to the documentation for ONTAP 5.3, UNIX groups are not used in the mapping from a UNIX identity to a CIFS identity when accessing a NTFS security style qtree. Does anyone happen to know of a way that we can circumvent this problem so that we can have the NTFS qtree recognize and except a UNIX accounts gid.
