Network and Storage Protocols

CIFS only Domain Admin has Access

Hi Community,

 

 

we purchased a new Netapp 8020 AFF with Clustered Data Ontap 8.3.1 installed. It's our first cDot System so I'm pretty new to this stuff.

I've created some CIFS shares for Users on our Windows 2008 R2 Domain.

Accessing the CIFS share with Domain Admin User worked well, but the share isn't accessible as a simple User with Domain User privileges.

After typing the login credentials of the User in the Win Explorer it takes about 15 Second then i get the User/PW promt again.

Adding the User to the Domain Admin Group in Active Directory makes the share accessible immediately.

 

The Volume is set so Security Style "NTFS".

The User is added to Share Permissions of the CIFS Share (Full Control)

Following Share Options set via OnCommand:

  • Enable as read/write
  • Enable Oplocks
  • Browsable
  • Notify Change

 

Disabling the SMB3 Protocol does not change the issue so i turn it back on because of our Windows 2012 Servers.

 

 

The vserver cifs options show command delivers following configuration:

 

 Client Session Timeout: 900
                              Copy Offload Enabled: true
                                Default Unix Group: -
                                 Default Unix User: -

But there is no solution to my problem.

 

Thanks for your response.

For CIFS access user mapping from Windows to Unix MUST succeed, even for access to folders with ntfs security style. In Windows-only environment it means, default Unix user MUST be defined as fallback. Which is pretty much confirmed by your disabling of Administrator-to-Unix mapping.

 

Set default Unix user in properties, make sure this user is also defined in SVM.

Got the same Issue. Domain Admins have access, all other domain user do not.

I thougth about Admin<>root mapping...

Just tried setting the option  
vserver cifs options modify -vserver vserver_cifs -is-admin-users-mapped-to-root-enabled false... and the same behaviour occurs with the domain admin user at accessing the cifs share.

something is wrong with access credentials ntfs/unix

 

Any ideas??

Thanks

use the following command to see if there is any unix user accounts existsing within your SVM.

 

cluster::> vserver services name-service unix-user show -vserver SVM_NAME

 

There must be a user account called 'pcuser'. If not, create one by "vserver services name-service unix-user create" command.

After that, you may set the default unix user value by,

 

cifs options modify -vserver SVM_NAME -default-unix-user pcuser
