Performing Initial Configuration (CLI)
Note -
Active Directory has two modes: domain and workgroup mode, which dictate how
SMB users are authenticated. In domain mode, SMB clients are authenticated through the
Active Directory domain controller, and you must ensure that the times on the appliance and the
domain controller match within five minutes.
NIS is an older directory protocol that is not very secure, and largely replaced by LDAP. It is
not recommended to run NIS and LDAP at the same time because they use the same domain
name setting.
Configure Name Services. Configure directory services for users and groups. You
can configure and enable each directory service independently, and you can
configure more than one directory service.
Subcommands that are valid in this context:
nis => Configure NIS
ldap => Configure LDAP
ad => Configure Active Directory
help [topic] => Get context-sensitive help. If [topic] is specified,
it must be one of "builtins", "commands", "general",
"help" or "script".
show => Show information pertinent to the current context
abort => Abort this task (potentially resulting in a
misconfigured system)
done => Finish operating on "directory"
