Basic Scenarios
For UNIX and Windows NT Username Mapping, an NIS Server must already exist in the
UNIX environment. Username Mapping associates NIS users and groups to
Windows NT users and groups. There are two types of maps that can be used; simple and
advanced. Simple maps define a one-to-one relationship between same name users and
groups. Advanced maps define a relationship between dissimilar names and groups.
Workgroup
In the Workgroup scenario, you configure Username Mapping locally on the PowerVault
75xN system. All maps are contained on this system.
