If the network already contains a UNIX NIS domain, the system administrator can simply add the
NAS server to the UNIX NIS domain to retrieve access settings from the NIS server.
Once the system administrator adds the NAS server to a UNIX NIS domain (see Network
Setup
à
UNIX NIS ), a new tab entitled
“
UNIX NIS Accounts
”
will appear on this page, containing all
the users retrieved from the NIS server. These accounts will directly apply the default quota set up
for a new user in the
“
Security Option
”
page. The system administrator can also set hard disk
quota individually for each NIS domain account in the
“
Quota Option
”
page.
When adding new users In some UNIX platforms, the system allows creating an according group
with the same name, and since the NAS server only allows up to 1,024 user groups, it is
suggested you don
’
t create the according groups when creating new users in the UNIX platform to
avoid failure of the NAS server adding to the NIS domain.
