OES File Services Feature Breakdown
Access Methods Authentication File Storage Services
eDirectory users on Windows
workstations have two native Windows
file access options (if their eDirectory
accounts have been enabled for LUM
and Samba):
Š
CIFS Client Access: Windows
Explorer users can access and
modify files on the Samba server
just as they would on any
workgroup server share.
Š
Web Folder: Users can create Web
Folders in Windows Explorer or
Internet Explorer.
Files on the OES 2 server running
Samba are accessed and
maintained with the HTTP-WebDAV
protocol.
All file service access is
controlled by LDAP-based
authentication through the
eDirectory LDAP server.
Although shown separately,
eDirectory could be installed
on the OES 2 server.
Of course, the same files can
also be accessed through
other OES file services (such
as NetStorage) that connect to
Linux volumes.
