Merge Windows and UNIX tokens

You can use either the join or append operator to merge two user names into a single token.

When Windows and UNIX user names do not match across directory services, you can write user-mapping rules that use either the join or the append operator to merge two user names into a single token. For example, if a user's Windows username is win_bob and the users UNIX username is UNIX_bob, you can join or append them.

When you append an account to another account, the append operator adds information from one identity to another. OneFS appends the fields that the options specify from the source identity to the target identity. OneFS appends the identifiers to the additional group list.

  1. Establish an SSH connection to any node in the cluster.
  2. Write a rule similar to the following example to join the Windows and UNIX user names, where <win-username> and <UNIX-username> are placeholders for the user's Windows and UNIX accounts: 
    MYDOMAIN\<win-username> &= <UNIX-username> []
  3. Write a rule similar to the following example to append the UNIX account to the Windows account with the groups option: 
    MYDOMAIN\<win-username> ++ <UNIX-username> [groups]
