Configuring CIFS Shares Level Permissions
Configuring CIFS Share Level Permissions (SLP) can only be done using the
Microsoft Management Console (MMC).
Administrators can use a predefined MMC file (.msc) from Windows Server
2000/2003/2008 start menu and add a shared folder snap-in to connect to
PowerVault NX3500 cluster.
The MMC does not let you chose which user to connect with to a
remote computer.
By default it will use the user logged on to the machine to form the connection.
To use the correct user in the MMC connection:
• If the PowerVault NX3500 you are trying to manage is joined to an Active
Directory, log in to the management station with
<
domain
>\Administrator
.
• Before using MMC, connect to PowerVault NX3500 by using the client
access Virtual IP address in the address bar of windows explorer. Log in
with the administrator account and then connect to MMC.
If you are doing the latter, you may need to reset the local administrator
password first. See "Resetting Local Administrator Password" on page 104.
