Integrating Users from an ADS, NTv4, or NIS Domain
When the NSS is joined to an ADS, NTv4, or NIS domain, a list of existing domain
users is imported into the Configured Users list. You can view the entire user list
from the Configured Users page but can only edit or delete locally created users
(not domain users). (The one exception to this is that you can edit the email
address directly from the Configuration Manager.) The naming conventions use
the NetBIOS format with the domain name as a prefix of the username. The
primary group for users set up within the ADS, NTv4 or NIS domain is taken from
the user’s domain profile versus the Primary Group field in the NSS user profile.
NOTE:
It is important to set up your User and
Group ID ranges before you join the NSS to an
ADS, NTv4, or NIS domain. After you join the
NSS to a domain, you should not make changes
to the range as this might lead to an ID collision.
