Hello Jonathan,

Thank you for the answer. Since I used Automatic ID-mapping method for the mmauth deployment I didn't do anything regarding RFC2307.
I chose this approach because we don't want to use kerberos for NFS authentication (although we will use NFS for separate data access).
I'll check on that. If you have any hints I would appreciate them.

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.


The obvious question is to ask if your Active Directory has it's RFC
23037bis fields populated?


JAB.
