Configure the NAS server UNIX Directory Service for NIS You can configure NAS server UNIX Directory Service (UDS) for NIS. 1. Select Storage > NAS Servers > [nas server] > Naming Services > UDS card. 2. If Disabled is on, slide the button to change to Enabled. 3. In the Unix Directory Service drop down, select NIS. 4. Enter an NIS Domain and add the IP Addresses for the NIS servers. 5. Select Apply. To troubleshoot issues with configuring a UDS using NIS, ensure that the NIS server domain and server IP addresses you enter are correct. Configure a NAS server UNIX Directory Service using LDAP You can configure a NAS server UNIX Directory Service (UDS) using LDAP. LDAP must adhere to the IDMU, RFC2307, or RFC2307bis schemas. Some examples include AD LDAP with IDMU, iPlanet, and OpenLDAP. The LDAP server must be configured properly to provide UIDs for each user. For example, on IDMU, the administrator must go in to the properties of each user and add a UID to the UNIX Attributes tab. You can configure LDAP to use anonymous, simple, and Kerberos authentication. If using Kerberos authentication, you must configure the following before you continue to configure LDAP with Kerberos: 1. From the Naming Services card, configure the DNS server that is used to join and unjoin a Kerberos server to a realm. 2. From the Security card, add the Kerberos Realm. 1. Select Storage > NAS Servers > [nas server] > Naming Services > UDS card. 2. If Disabled is on, slide the button to change to Enabled. 3. In the Unix Directory Service drop down, select LDAP. 4. Leave the default or enter a different Port Number. NOTE: By default, LDAP uses port 389, and LDAP over SSL (LDAPS) uses port 636. 5. Add the IP addresses for the LDAP servers. The NAS server can be configured to use the DNS service discovery to automatically obtain LDAP server IP addresses. NOTE: For this discovery process to work, the DNS server must contain pointers to the LDAP servers, and the LDAP servers must share the same authentication settings. 6. Configure the LDAP authentication as described in the following table: Option Description Anonymous Specify the Base DN, and the Profile DN for the iPlanet/OpenLDAP server. Simple Specify the following: ● If using AD, LDAP/IDMU: ○ Bind DN in LDAP notation format; for example, cn=administrator,cn=users,dc=svt,dc=lab,dc=com. ○ Base DN, in the X.509 format (for example, dc=svt,dc=lab,dc=com). ○ Profile DN. ● If using the iPlanet/OpenLDAP server: ○ Bind DN in LDAP notation format; for example, cn=administrator,cn=users,dc=svt,dc=lab,dc=com. ○ Password ○ Base DN. For example, if using svt.lab.com, the Base DN would be DC=svt,DC=lab,DC=com. ○ Profile DN (optional) - For the iPlanet/OpenLDAP server. Kerberos Configure a custom realm to hover over any type of Kerberos realm (Windows, MIT, Heimdal). With this option, the NAS Server uses the custom Kerberos realm that is defined in the Kerberos subsection of the NAS server Security tab. 10 Create NAS servers
