Scenario

This test scenario requires you to deploy Microsoft Services for NFS in a lab
environment to assess how this technology would function if deployed in
your production environment. The instructions provided in this document will
help you:

• Set up User Name Mapping to map Windows and UNIX user

accounts so that users can log on to either Windows or UNIX
domains and access resources in both environments.

• Create an NFS shared resource on a computer running

Windows Server 2003 R2 and Server for NFS that can be mounted
and used by a UNIX computer.

• Create an NFS shared resource on a UNIX file server that can be

mounted and used by a computer running Windows Server 2003 R2
and Client for NFS.


With the Microsoft Services for NFS snap-in, you can administer each
installed component of Microsoft Services for NFS. When you open the

R2. The three main components of

Microsoft Services for NFS – User Name Mapping, Server for NFS, and
Client for NFS – can be installed on the same computer or on separate
computers.

IMPORTANT

Before installing Microsoft Services for NFS, you must remove any previously
installed NFS components, such as NFS components that were included with
Services for UNIX. We recommend that you back up or make a record of your
configuration before removing NFS components, so that you can restore the
configuration on Microsoft Services for NFS.


You can use Microsoft Services for NFS with UNIX computers which are
running NFS client or server software which complies with version 2 or
version 3 of the NFS protocol. NFS version 2 is defined in RFC 1094 and
NFS version 3 is definied in RFC 1813.
