NAME

6       nfsmapid - NFS user and group id mapping daemon
7

SYNOPSIS

9       /usr/lib/nfs/nfsmapid
10
11

DESCRIPTION

13       The  nfsmapid  daemon  maps  to  and  from  NFS  version  4  owner  and
14       owner_group identification attributes and local  UID  and  GID  numbers
15       used by both the NFS version 4 client and server.
16
17
18       nfsmapid  uses  the  passwd and group entries in the /etc/nsswitch.conf
19       file to direct how it performs the mappings.
20
21
22       The nfsmapid daemon has no  external,  customer-accessible  interfaces.
23       You  can,  however,  administratively  configure nfsmapid in one of the
24       following ways:
25
26           o      Specify the NFSMAPID_DOMAIN parameter in nfs(4)
27
28           o      Specify the _nfsv4idmapdomain DNS resource record.

NOTES

54       The nfsmapid service is managed by  the  service  management  facility,
55       smf(5), under the service identifier:
56
57         svc:/network/nfs/mapid
58
59
60
61
62       Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or
63       requesting restart, can be performed using  svcadm(1M).  The  service's
64       status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.
65
66
67       If  it is disabled, it will be enabled by mount_nfs(1M), share_nfs(1M),
68       and automountd(1M), unless  its       application/auto_enable  property
69       is set to false.
70
71
72       nfsmapid  caches a user's UID and GID. If a user subsequently changes a
73       UID or GID, using one of the utilities listed below, the nfsmapid cache
74       becomes  stale.  At  this  point,  any  NFS  operation that gets or set
75       attributes will result in the exchange of this  stale  information.  To
76       resolve this situation, restart nfsmapid, as follows:
77
78         # svcadm restart svc:/network/nfs/mapid:default
79
80
81
82
83       The utilities that allow you to change UID and GID are:
84
85           o      usermod(1M)
86
87           o      userdel(1M)
88
89           o      groupmod(1M)
90
91           o      groupdel(1M)
92
93           o      passmgmt(1M)

95
96       The nfsmapid daemon might not exist in a future release of Solaris.
