Figure 103: User and Group Mappings dialog box, Explicit User Mapping tab
To create explicit user mappings:
1. Click the List UNIX Users button to populate the UNIX users box.
2. To map a local Windows user to a UNIX user, highlight the Windows user in the
Windows local users box and highlight the UNIX user that you want to map, and then
click Add. The Explicitly mapped users box at the bottom of the screen is populated with
the new mappings. Repeat this process until all desired users have been mapped.
3. To map a domain Windows user to a UNIX user, enter the domain and the user name in the
box in the middle of the screen (use the Domain\username format) and highlight the UNIX
user that you want to map, and then click Add. The map is added to the Explicitly
mapped users box at the bottom of the screen. Repeat this process until all desired users
have been mapped.
4. To map multiple Windows users to one UNIX user, one of the mapped Windows users
must be set as the primary mapping. To indicate which user map is the primary mapping,
highlight the desired map in the Explicitly mapped users box, and then click the Set
Primary button.
5. To delete a map, highlight the map in the Explicitly mapped users box, and then click the
Remove button.
6. After all entries are completed, click OK to activate the new entries.
Explicit Group Mapping Tab
To enter explicit group mappings, select the Explicit Group Mapping tab. Figure 104 is an
example of the Explicit Group Mapping tab.
Explicit mappings allow the administrator to map any user or group manually to any other user
and group. Explicit mappings override simple mappings, giving administrators the capability
of using simple mapping for most groups and then using explicit mappings to make changes to
simple mappings. Simple mapping can be turned off for greater security.
