5 Microsoft Services for Network
File System (MSNFS)
This chapter discusses networking features in Microsoft Services for Network File System (MSNFS).
MSNFS Features
MSNFS is an update to the NFS components that were previously available in Services for UNIX 3.5.
MSNFS includes the following new features:
•
Updated administration snap-in—MSNFS Administration
•
Active Directory Lookup—The Identity Management for UNIX Active Directory schema extension,
available in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2, includes UNIX user identi
fi
er (UID) and
group identi
fi
er (GID)
fi
elds, which enables Server for NFS and Client for NFS to look up
Windows-to-UNIX user account mappings directly from Active Directory. Identity Management for
UNIX simpli
fi
es Windows-to-UNIX user account mapping management in Active Directory.
•
Enhanced server performance—Microsoft Services for NFS includes a
fi
le
fi
lter driver, which
signi
fi
cantly reduces common server
fi
le access latencies.
•
UNIX special device support—Microsoft Services for NFS supports UNIX special devices (mknod).
•
Enhanced UNIX support—Microsoft Services for NFS now supports the following versions of UNIX:
• Hewlett Packard HP-UX version 11i
• IBM AIX version 5L 5.2
• Red Hat Linux version 9
• Sun Microsystems Solaris version 9
The following features that were previously available in Services for UNIX 3.5 are not included in MSNFS:
•
Gateway for NFS
•
Server for PCNFS
•
All PCNFS components of Client for NFS
UNIX Identity Management
Identity Management for UNIX makes it easy to integrate users of Windows operating systems into
existing UNIX environments. It provides manageability components that simplify network administration
and account management across both platforms.
With Identity Management for UNIX, the administrator can:
•
Manage user accounts and passwords on Windows and UNIX systems using Network Information
Service (NIS).
•
Automatically synchronize passwords between Windows and UNIX operating systems.
UNIX Identity Management consists of the following components:
•
Administration components
•
Password synchronization
•
Server for NIS
The UNIX Identity Management component is not enabled by default on the storage server. To install
this component:
