NOTE:
NFS users can be authenticated using either Windows domain accounts or local accounts on the
Windows server. Server for NFS Authentication must be installed on all domain controllers in the domain
if N FS users will be authenticated using domain accounts. Server for NFS Authentication is always
installed on the computer running Server for NFS.
Elevate S4U2 functionality on Windows Server 2 003 domain controllers
NOTE:
The S4U2 functionality does not work until the domain functional level is elevated to Windows Server
2003.
To elevate the functional level to Windows Server 2003:

Server for NFS administration
The Server for NFS administration online help contains information for the following topics:
• Understand
ing the Ser ver for NFS component
• Starting and stopping Server for NFS
• Configuring Server for NFS
• Securing S
erver for NFS
• Optimizing Ser ver for NFS performance
• Using file systems with NFS
• M anaging
NFS shares
• M anaging NFS client groups
• Using Microsoft Services for NFS with server clusters
• Server f
or NFS Authentication
Accessing NFS resources for Windows users and groups
Server for NFS allows Windows clients to ac cess NFS resources on the storage server without separately
logging on to Ser ver for NFS. The firsttimeusersattempttoaccessanNFSresource,theServerforNFS
looks up the user’s UNIX UID and G I D information in either Windows Active Directory or the User
Name Mapping function on the storage server. If the UNIX UID and GID information is mapped to a
Windows user and group accounts, the Windows names are returned to Server for NFS, which then uses
the Windows user and group names to grant file access. If the UNIX UID and GID information is not
mapped, then Server for NFS will deny file access.
There are two ways to specify how Server for NFS on the storage server obtains Windows user and
group information:
• Using the Windows interface
• Using a command line (nfsadmin.exe)
