Configuring a local group

A local user can be a member of one or more local groups. This group membership is used in the standalone mode to determine if the given user can perform some file operations on an exported share. You can create, delete, and display information about local groups using the CIFS> local group command.

To create a local group

  • To create a local group, enter the following:
    CIFS> local group add groupname

    where groupname is the name of the local group.

To list all local groups

  • To list all existing local groups, enter the following:
    CIFS> local group show [groupname]

    where groupname lists all of the users that belong to that specific group.

To delete the local CIFS groups

  • To delete the local CIFS group, enter the following:
    CIFS> local group delete groupname

    where groupname is the name of the local CIFS group.
