Introduction

Using Nodemap, UIDs, GIDs and PROJIDs provided by remote clients can be mapped onto a local set of UIDs, GIDs and PROJIDs.

You may find this useful if:

  • You need to prevent UID, GID, and PROJID collisions between clients in different administrative domains
  • Two or more partner organizations would like to share data in the same filesystem
  • You can limit access from a partner site
  • You can limit administrator/root access to the filesystem
