Using auth.conf file with UNIX/ Windows active directory or local user groups

Hello all,

I’m running NBU 7.1.0.3 on a RedHat 2.6 Linux Server, using JAVA admin console

We aim to restrict access to some users only using the auth.conf file

Checking the admin guide and Symantec forums, it seems the only way to do that is to set access for indivual users, not UNIX / Windows active directory groups

I tried to add one group on the auth.conf file, but users members of this group cannot connect

Did anyone tried this ?

Our authfile.conf looks like this :

User1 ADMIN=ALL JBP=ALL

User2 ADMIN=ALL JBP=ALL

User3 ADMIN=ALL JBP=ALL

* ADMIN=JBP JBP=ENDUSER+BU+ARC

Adding a group this way seems not to work :

WindowsDomain\group ADMIN=ALL JBP=ALL

User2 ADMIN=ALL JBP=ALL

User3 ADMIN=ALL JBP=ALL

* ADMIN=JBP JBP=ENDUSER+BU+ARC

Thanks

David
