NFS LDAP Connection
Applies To: Windows Server 2008
Server for NFS enables you to control access by users and groups to Services for Network File System (NFS) resources. A connection to an Light Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server allows Server for NFS to query Windows-UNIX user account mappings and grant file access to a user.
Events
| Event ID | Source | Message |
|---|---|---|
NfsService |
Server for NFS successfully connected to the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server for domain <%1>. | |
NfsService |
Active Directory Domain Services(R) contains multiple users which match attribute <%1>. Only one Windows(R) user should be assoicated with each UNIX UID. With multiple Windows users associated with one UNIX UID, Server for NFS cannot determine which Windows user is requesting access to files. No Windows users associated with the same UNIX UID will be able to access files through Server for NFS. Try removing the duplicate UNIX UID entries. | |
NfsService |
Active Directory Domain Services(R) contains multiple groups which match attribute <%1>. Only one Windows(R) group should be assoicated with each UNIX GID. With multiple Windows groups associated with one UNIX GID, Server for NFS cannot determine which Windows group to use to grant access to files. Try removing the duplicate UNIX GID entries. | |
NfsService |
Server for NFS could not connect to the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server for domain <%1>. Without a connection to the LDAP server, Server for NFS cannot query for Windows-to-UNIX user account mappings and cannot grant file access to any user. Verify that Server for NFS is configured to use the appropriate LDAP server using the Nfsadmin command-line tool. | |
NfsService |
Server for NFS could not find any Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) accounts which match attribute <%1>. Without attribute <%1>, Server for NFS does not know the corresponding Windows user account for the Unix user and cannot grant file access to the UNIX user. Verify that the LDAP server is configured with the appropriate attributes. |
