AXIS StorPoint CD E100 User’s Manual 53
If a license is not available, the user will still be authenticated but group
information cannot be read.
The authenticated users can access the discs according to the access rights set up
by the Administrator.
The authentication procedure will not introduce any extra administrator
overhead as there is no need for maintaining a separate user database for the
StorPoint CD. If the user is defined in the file server that the StorPoint CD uses
for authentication, the user will automatically have access to the StorPoint CD.
Authentication to a
NetWare 3.x Server
For access to a StorPoint CD connected to a NetWare 3.x server, authentication
is done against the user list in the bindery of the NetWare server:
• If a user is on the list, the password will be verified. If the password is
correct, the user will be granted access.
• If the password is incorrect, login will fail.
If a user is not on the list, he will not be granted access to the StorPoint CD.
However, he could login as ‘guest’ and get access to volumes that are not
protected.
Default Access Rights The default access rights in NetWare bindery mode are set up by the following
trustee assignments:
• The root of the SYS volume has [EVERYONE] as trustee, with File Scan,
Read, Write, Create, Modify and Erase rights.
• The System folder has all rights, except Supervisor, filtered. Thus all system
files are effectively protected from normal users.
Note:
❏ You can use Filer to change the default access rights.
Setting Security Rights
in NetWare Bindery
The security rights can be set using standard procedures, e.g. Filer.
To make all the discs available to some users only, follow these steps:
1. Login as Supervisor on the StorPoint CD. In order for Filer to access the
StorPoint CD, the client must have an active connection.
2. Login as Supervisor on your NetWare Bindery file server and start Filer.
3. Change the current directory to AXIS<nnnnnn>_NW/SYS:.
4. Remove the [EVERYONE] trustee from the root.
5. Add a new trustee assignment to the root.
To restrict access to a particular disc, follow these steps:
1. Login as Supervisor on the StorPoint CD. In order for Filer to access the
StorPoint CD, the client must have an active connection.
2. Login as Supervisor on your NetWare Bindery file server and start Filer.
3. Change the current directory to AXIS<nnnnnn>_NW/SYS:.
