mapuname(8)

NAME

mapuname - Maps and unmaps domain objects (user, global group, and local group account names) to and from Tru64 UNIX user accounts and groups.

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/mapuname [-l] [-g | -u] [domain:object | UNIX_name] /usr/sbin/mapuname -a [-g | -u] domain:object UNIX_name /usr/sbin/mapuname -d [-g | -u] [domain:object | UNIX_name] /usr/sbin/mapuname -p [-g | -u]

OPTIONS

-a Maps the specified domain:object to the specified UNIX_name. The domain:object must be an existing domain user, global group, or local group account name in the local domain or in a trusted domain. -d Deletes the specified mapping or mappings. -g Specifies that mappings only apply to Tru64 UNIX group names. -l Displays mapping or mappings. This is the default option. -p Purges obsolete mappings. A mapping is obsolete if domain:object or UNIX_name no longer exist. -u Specifies that mappings only apply to Tru64 UNIX user account names. This is the default option.

OPERANDS

domain The name of the domain in which the object exists. object The name of a domain user, global group, or local group. UNIX_name The name of a user or group on the Tru64 UNIX system.

DESCRIPTION

By default, when you create a domain user account, the ASU server automatically creates a Tru64 UNIX user account (using lower case letters) in the local /etc/passwd file if one with the same name does not exist. The ASU server stores a mapping of a user's domain user account to their corresponding Tru64 UNIX user account. When a domain user creates a file on the Tru64 UNIX system, the Tru64 UNIX user account owner of that file is the domain user's corresponding Tru64 UNIX user account. You use the mapuname command to view and change the domain user account to Tru64 UNIX user account mappings. Without arguments, the mapuname command displays all mappings to Tru64 UNIX user accounts. Given an argument domain:object, the mapuname command displays the Tru64 UNIX user account name to which the indicated domain object is mapped; the specified object must be defined in the local domain or in a trusted domain. It is possible to map multiple domain objects to a Tru64 UNIX user name; however, a domain object can only map to one Tru64 UNIX user account name. You must be the root user to use the mapuname command.

EXAMPLES

1. To display current mappings, enter: # mapuname 2. To map the domain user account myname in the domain mydom to the Tru64 UNIX user called uuname, enter: # mapuname -a mydom:myname uuname 3. To unmap the domain user account myname in the domain mydom, enter: # mapuname -d mydom:myname 4. To delete all mappings of domain objects to the Tru64 UNIX user account uuname, enter: # mapuname -d uuname
