We have a NAS server from Adaptec called a Snap Server. You can attach
this
server to a domain for domain authentication. So the end result is my
Windows users simply go to a share and they have access (or not depending
on
their access). The main point here is they don't have to manual pass
authentication (username and password) Windows or SMB is doing it for
them.
Enter my Mac users. They connect via AFP. The Snap Server DOES allow
domain authentication over AFP. When a Mac user hits a share they have to
manually input their info and they have to do it as:
DOMAIN\UserName
Password
At the very least I would like to shave off the DOMAIN\ part. Is there
any
way to specify a default domain name while authenticating over AFP?
Ultimately I would like my Mac user to mirror my windows users and not
have
to enter anything at all. The username and password on the Macs match the
Username and password in my domain (not sure if that helps at all).
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!
