Default User and Group Settings
SnapServer default security configuration provides one share to the entire volume.
All network protocols for the share are enabled, and all users are granted read-write
permission to the share via the guest account.
A
local user
or
group
is one defined locally on a SnapServer using the Administration
Tool. The default users and groups listed below cannot be modified or deleted.
UID and GID Assignments
The SnapServer uses the POSIX standard to assign a user ID (UID) and group ID
(GID), in which each user and group must have an ID. This requirement applies to
all users and groups on the SnapServer, including local, Windows, and NIS users
and groups.
If you join the SnapServer to a Windows or NIS domain, IDs are automatically
assigned. UIDs and GIDs are now assigned on a “first come, first served” basis,
with preference given first to local users, then Windows users, then NIS users.
Consider the following when creating users and groups:
• UIDs and GIDs from 0 - 100 are unavailable for use. If you try to assign a UID or
GID that is in use by NIS or the Windows domain, or is less than 101, you will get
an error message.
