Migration local users to AD integration in ReadyNAS OS 6
Hi everyone,
First of all, I have read pretty much every single article about this isse and haven't found a straightforward answer, which is why I'm posting this here.
I want to migrate local us...
Hi EKroboter
If your users have any files saved on their private home folders, backing up their folders would be the best thing to do.
Once your ReadyNAS is joined to your AD it should apply the permissions you have set on your AD.
Yes, only Home shares will be removed all other shares and data will be intact and will be synced with your AD users. The local users and groups will be disabled so you don't need to delete it.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Thank a lot for the instructions. I have succesfully joined the ReadyNAS to our domain and imported user accounts correctly.
I am now setting all shares permissions through Windows Explorer, in the share Security tab. I removed everyone access and only allow access to the corresponding groups (i.e. only the members of the Sales group will have access to the Sales share).
I'm seeing that it is applying hte permissions on every single file, which will take a long time on larger shares with thousands of files.
