[gpfsug-discuss] Active direcotry based ACLs for Samba and Windows GPFS clients

[Peter Hruška]

Hello,

I would like to ask if there is any possible way to unify access IDs for Samba share and GPFS client on Windows.

The model situation looks like this - we have a GPFS cluster with one filesystem. On the filesystem we have a Samba shared directory. MMauth is configured to Active directory for file access and works.
The Windows machine is also part of the GPFS cluster and therefore it is able to mount the filesystem "directly" by mmmount. However the user/group IDs that are used by this access method are not consistent with the IDs used by Samba and access to the same data is not working well.
Is there is any solution to this situation? I tried to study the documentation but I didn't find a clear information whether this is or isn't possible but I also didn't find a way to unify the access.
