Should CIFS create default etc/passwd and etc/group files?
Enter
y
here if you have a multiprotocol environment. Default
UNIX accounts are created that are used when user
mapping is run. As an alternative to storing this information
in a local file, the generic user accounts can be stored in the
NIS or LDAP databases. If generic accounts are stored in
the local passwd file, mapping of a Windows user to a
generic UNIX user and mapping of a generic UNIX user to
a Windows user work better than when generic accounts
are stored in NIS or LDAP.
NIS group caching
NIS group caching is used
when access is requested
to data with UNIX security
style. UNIX file and
directory style
permissions of rwxrwxrwx
are used to determine
access for both Windows
and UNIX clients. This
security style uses UNIX
group information. Enable?
