Explicit User Maps

User and Group mapping lets you create inter- and cross-platform maps among Microsoft Windows and UNIX user and group accounts, even when the user and group names in both environments are not identical.

User and Group mapping also let you set up one- to-one, one-to-many, or many-to-one inter- and cross- platform mappings among Windows and UNIX users and groups. For example, a Windows user name could be mapped to several UNIX user names, or a UNIX group could be mapped to one or more Windows user accounts. Explicit user maps can also be used when the same person has different user names on Windows and UNIX accounts. Using the Explicit User Maps option lets you maintain a single mapping database for the entire enterprise.
