SnapServer Administrator Guide
Changing Local UIDs or GIDs
The SnapServer automatically assigns and manages UIDs and GIDs. Because you
may need to assign a specific ID to a local user or group in order to match your
existing UID/GID assignments, the SnapServer makes these fields editable.
Password Policies
To provide additional authentication security, set password character requirements,
password expiration dates, and lockout rules for local users.
Local users can also be individually exempted from password expiration and
character requirement policies. The built-in
admin
user is exempt from all password
policies.
Note
Local users with expired passwords can change their passwords at
http://<snapservername>/changepassword.
Local Account Management Tools
The SnapServer offers the following tools for creating, modifying, and editing local
user and group accounts.
Notes
• Local users can be individually exempted from password expiration and
character requirements. This may be necessary for some special users, such as
users configured to perform backups. See the Online Help for procedures to
set password policy for local users.
• The built-in
admin
user is automatically exempt from all password policies.
Note
Changing a user’s UID will nullify any file system access permissions that
apply to that UID. In addition, any existing permissions for a UID previously
assigned to a user changed to a different UID will become active if another user is
created with the same UID. Carefully consider security configuration on existing
files and directories before changing the UID of a user.
