There is a document on the NOW site that should help:

This is primarily for 5.3, but it is also useful for earlier releases. It h as a lot of explanations of our approach, a security FAQ, and a bunch of other (hopefully useful) security-related stuff.

This is nice. Especially since the System Administrator's Guide doesn't talk about the usermap.cfg file. (Even though the sample file refers you to it. Just 'cause the filer is _usually_ simple to setup and maintain is no excuse for poor/missing documentation.)

I've been trying to setup access to a "mixed" quota tree such that no NT admin as access to it, but a UNIX root user can over-ride NTFS permissions. I know this sounds weird, but there are _way_ too many NT admin accounts floating around. That's why I don't want NT admins to have access to (read: be able to screw up) the filer. But because I'm one of those "pesky UNIX admins" I can't get and admin account, so I need root to be able to over-ride NTFS permissions. Is this even possible? I'm not having much luck.

I am trying to set up a mixed environment on 2 720's. I have created a test share and a usermap.cfg file that has domain\user unix-user mapped out. My problem is that only 2 our 7 peo ple can get access to the share. What else might I be missing?
