For example:
Š
eDirectory users must exist in the eDirectory tree where the OES server resides and have access
rights to the files and directories on the OES server.
Š
Windows users must exist on the Windows systems and have the required access rights to the
files and directories on those systems.
Š
If your users will access Samba files on an OES 2 server, they must be enabled for LUM and
Samba access on the OES 2 server. For more information, see
“Services in OES 2 That Require
LUM-Enabled Access” on page 152 .
IMPORTANT: The usernames and passwords used to authenticate to the NetStorage (OES) server
through eDirectory must match the usernames and passwords defined on the target systems.
17.7.4 Authenticating to Access Other Target Systems
The OES installation establishes a primary authentication domain for NetStorage. To access any
storage location, users must exist somewhere in this primary domain. When it receives an
authentication request, NetStorage searches for the username in the context you specified during
OES installation and in all its subcontexts.
Authentication to other file systems is often controlled by other authentication domains. For
example, you might create a storage location on the OES 2 server that points to a legacy NetWare
server that resides in a different eDirectory tree. To access this storage location, users must
authenticate to the other tree.
This means that you must specify an additional context in the NetStorage configuration as a
nonprimary authentication domain.
When defining a nonprimary authentication domain, you must
Š
Ensure that the username and password in the nonprimary domain matches the username and
password in the primary domain.
Š
Specify the exact context where User objects reside. NetStorage doesn’t search the subcontexts
of nonprimary authentication domains.
For more information about managing NetStorage authentication domains, see “ Authentication
Domains ” in the OES 2 SP2: NetStorage for Linux Administration Guide .
17.7.5 NetStorage Authentication Is Not Persistent by Default
By default, users must reauthenticate each time they access NetStorage in a browser. This is true
even if another browser window is open and authenticated on the same workstation.
The reason for this is that persistent cookies are not enabled by default.
This setting can be changed. For more information, see “ Persistent Cookies ” in the OES 2 SP2:
NetStorage for Linux Administration Guide .
