6.1 HP IBRIX X9000 Network Storage System File System User Guide (TA768-96061, June 2012)

You cannot change the UID or RID for a Local User account. If it is necessary to change a UID or
RID, first delete the account and then recreate it with the new UID or RID. The Local Users and
Local Groups panels allow you to delete the selected user or group.
Configuring authentication from the CLI
You can configure Active Directory, LDAP, LDAP ID mapping, or Local Users and Groups.
Configuring Active Directory
To configure Active Directory authentication, use the following command:
ibrix_auth -n DOMAIN_NAME –A AUTH_PROXY_USER_NAME@domain_name [-P AUTH_PROXY_PASSWORD]
[-S SETTINGLIST] [-h HOSTLIST]
RFC2307 is the protocol that enables Linux static user mapping with Active Directory. To enable
RFC2307 support, use the following command:
ibrix_cifsconfig -t [-S SETTINGLIST] [-h HOSTLIST]
Enable RFC2307 in the SETTINGLIST as follows:
rfc2307_support=rfc2307
For example:
ibrix_cifsconfig -t -S "rfc2307_support=rfc2307"
To disable RFC2307, set rfc2307_support to unprovisioned. For example:
ibrix_cifsconfig -t -S "rfc2307_support=unprovisioned"
IMPORTANT: After making configuration changes with the ibrix_cifsconfig -t -S
command, use the following command to restart the CIFS services on all nodes affected by the
change.
ibrix_server –s –t cifs –c restart [–h SERVERLIST]
Clients will experience a temporary interruption in service during the restart.
Configuring LDAP
Use the ibrix_ldapconfig command to configure LDAP as the authentication service for CIFS
shares.
IMPORTANT: Before using ibrix_ldapconfig to configure LDAP on the cluster nodes, you
must configure the remote LDAP server. For more information, see “Configuring LDAP for X9000
software” (page 55).
