Hi everybody,
just one simple question regarding the authentication of users in the
mount options: Is it possible to authenticate a user with his
userPrincipalName attribute and a password or are there any more
dependencies to get this to work (i. e. krb5 or other security options)?
Example: mount -t cifs //server/share /mnt -o
username=my.upn.prefix@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,password=PASSWORD
The only working solution was with the default sAMAccountName Attribute.
Background:
We are building a new fileservice for Windows and Linux Clients. The
users are stored in Active Directory. The username (sAMAccountName) is a
random string created by the Server itself. The only login attribute the
user knows is his UPN (which is also the mailaddress in our case).
Thanks in advance
Christian
