DataSafe NAS User’s Manual 72
If enabled, simple maps create automatic mappings
between Unix users and Microsoft Windows users that
both share the same user name. In a simple user map,
users in a Windows domain are implicitly mapped
one-to-one to UNIX users on the basis of user name.
When the Windows domain and the UNIX 'passwd' and
group files or Network Information Services (NIS)
domain are identified, the simple maps function maps
users who have the same name in both the Windows
and UNIX or NIS domain. If no match exists for a user
name in either place, that user is not mapped.
Note: To access this page you must have entered a
valid NIS server name on the General tab.

1. On the primary menu bar, select Services.

If you select the DataSafe NAS name, the local
users and groups will be mapped.
