Snap Server Administrator Guide

permission to the share via the guest account.
A
local user
or
group
is one defined locally on a Snap Server using the
Administration Tool. The default users and groups listed below cannot be modified
or deleted.
UID and GID Assignments
The Snap Server uses the POSIX standard to assign a user ID (UID) and group ID
(GID), in which each user and group must have an ID. This requirement applies to
all users and groups on the Snap Server, including local, Windows, and NIS users
and groups.
If you join the Snap Server to a Windows or NIS domain, IDs are automatically

with preference given first to local users, then Windows users, then NIS users.
Consider the following when creating users and groups:
UIDs and GIDs from 0 - 100 are unavailable for use. If you try to assign a UID or
GID that is in use by NIS or the Windows domain, or is less than 101, you will get
an error message.
