Denying specified users and groups access to the CIFS share
To deny specified users and groups access to the CIFS share
- To deny specified users and groups access to the CIFS share, enter the following:
CIFS> share deny sharename \ @group1[,@group2,user1,user2,...]
sharename
Name of the CIFS share for which you want to deny specified users and groups access.
Names of the Access Appliance shares are non case sensitive and can consist of the following characters: lower and uppercase letters "a" - "z" and "A" - "Z," numbers "0" - "9" and special characters: "_" and "-". ( "-", cannot be used as the first character in a share name).
group
If the CIFS server joined a domain, and there is a space in the user or group name, the user or group name needs to be entered with double quotes (for example, "@domain users").
By default, all groups are allowed to access the shares.
In the case where a CIFS share has joined a domain, and the domain contains trusted domains, and CIFS is set to trusted domains as true, if you want to allow/deny users or groups from the trusted domains, the user or group needs to be prefixed with the trusted domain name. Separate the domain and user/group with a double backslash.
For example:
CIFS> share deny sharename "@domain name\\user name"
user
Name of the CIFS user denied access to the CIFS share.
By default, all users are allowed to access the shares.
If all is specified, then all the users and groups are not able to access the share.
CIFS> share deny share1 user1,@group1
