Which service uses IDMAP to associate Windows and UNIX identities?
A.
SMTP
B.
CIFS
C.
NTP
D.
DNS
Explanation:
The Solaris CIFS service determines the Windows user’s Solaris credentials by
using the idmapd service to map the SIDs in the user’s Windows access token to UIDs and GIDs,as appropriate. The service checks the mappings and if a match for the Windows domain name
and Windows entity name is found, the Solaris UID or GID is taken from the matching entry. If no
match is found, an ephemeral UID or GID is dynamically allocated.
Note:idmapis an iIdentityMapping service for POSIX and Windows identity conversion.
