Step 2: Starting Adaptec Storage Manager ● 37
Configuring NetWare User Authentication
This section describes two ways to configure NetWare user
authentication.
Out-of-box Authentication
● Administrative Access—Granted exclusively to the Admin user
account, which must be defined within the NetWare Bindery context
of the server running the Adaptec Storage Manager agent.
● User Access—Granted to all Bindery and NetWare Directory
Services (NDS) user accounts. For NDS users, the user account must
reside within the same tree as the server running the Adaptec
Storage Manager agent.
When logging into Adaptec Storage Manager, NDS users must
provide the fully distinguished account name.
NDS Authentication
NDS authentication is based on NDS group membership.
To set up NDS group membership:
1 Create and populate an NDS group for storage administration.
Note: The group must reside within the same NDS tree as the server
running the Adaptec Storage Manager agent.
2 Install Adaptec Storage Manager.
3 Restrict authentication to the new group by adding this entry to the
SYS:\RAIDMAN\RaidAgent.pps file:
agent.group.NetWareStorageAdmin=<fully distinguished group
name>
For example:
agent.group.NetWareStorageAdmin=.CN=StorageAdmins.O=Acme
4
Restart the server.
Limited user access is granted to all NDS user accounts.
