First I assume you are using Domain Authentication. If not, then that is why it does not work.

A better way is to use User Manager. Connect to the filer with an account that is a member of the filer's domain Domain Admins group. You can then edit the local Administrators group using User Manager. Remember if you change a group membership that it does not take effect until the user reconnects. Instead of knocking all of cifs down, you can terminate an individual PC.

You can tell the group membership of a particular user using cifs sessions -s. You need to be a member of the local administrators or power users group.

Hi,

first ensure that your user is a domain admin. If you are in the group "Domain Admins" but you are not DOMAIN\Administrator the edit the file /etc/usermap.cfg in the root volume and map your user to root. Then cifs terminate/restart and it should be possible to access the filers for your user.

When accessing Server Manager on a NT Server running 4.0 and NetApp Data OnTap 5.2.1 does anyone know why "Access Denied" comes up when any of the NetApp servers are selected?
