QuestionQ111

CIFS administration tasks

John is a Windows user trying to access a volume or qtree with a UNIX security style. Assuming no explicit name mapping has been performed, to which default user is he mapped to validate authorization?

  • A Admin
  • B Pcuser
  • C Root
  • D john
Explanation

ONTAP uses a UNIX credential to authorize SMB access to UNIX security-style volumes or qtrees. When no explicit Windows-to-UNIX name mapping applies, the configured default UNIX user is used; by default, that user is pcuser.
