Setting Security Rights
in NetWare NDS
Because the StorPoint CD acts as a normal NDS file server, its NDS security
rights can be set using standard procedures, e.g. ConsoleOne or NWAdmin.
To make all the discs available to some users only, follow these steps:
1. Login using an account with Supervisor rights.
2. Start the NWAdmin.
3. Remove the [Public] trustee from the root of the SYS volume.
4. Add the new trustee assignments to the root of the SYS volume.
To restrict access to a particular disc, follow these steps:
1. Login using an account with Supervisor rights.
2. Start the NWAdmin.
3. On the resource you want to protect, set an inherited rights filter and filter ALL
rights.
4. Add the new trustee assignments to the resource. This makes it available only
to the users in the trustee list.
Note:
❏ The NetWare NDS access rights for the StorPoint CD can be set using
Security Equivalence, Group, Container, Organization role, and User
Objects as with any other NDS file server. There is no difference between
how you use NWAdmin to set these access rights for a StorPoint CD, and
how you would set the access rights on an NDS file server.
NetWare Bindery
Without
Authentication
If user authentication is not required, you do not have to specify an
authentication server. The Supervisor can login using the Server password.
Other users can login without password and will be considered to belong to the
EVERYONE group.
No NetWare server licenses are required since the StorPoint CD does not log on
to the file server.
If needed, you can use your standard NetWare administration tool, e.g. Filer, to
limit access to the StorPoint CD system files to the Supervisor. Unauthorized
users will still have guest access to the volumes. This is normally sufficient
security for a StorPoint CD.
NetWare Bindery
With Authentication
If user access control is required, you must specify an authentication server in the
Bind Authentication parameter. The StorPoint CD will need to log on to the
authentication server in order to authenticate the user and read which groups the
user belongs to. In this case, the authentication server must have a standby
license for the StorPoint CD. However, several StorPoint CDs can share this
license.
Important!
❏ If “Station Restrictions” are used on the Novell server used for
authentication, each user who wants to access the StorPoint CD need at
least two concurrent connections to the authentication server.
