Hey guys,

Been toying around with some NFS shares hosted on a win2k8 r2 server and trying to share between mac osx and win xp/7 clients. Currently I'm only able to get it working anonymously. When I try to specify a user, group, or specific computer, I get access denied. I have specified the proper permissions on the folder level as well. I'm using Active Directory as my Identity mapping source and I've seemingly set everything up correctly following Microsoft's technet article(s). I've gone through a few hours of research and trial and error before deciding to create a post anywhere.

Ideally, would like to get rid of anonymous logon for obvious reasons and really secure down some of these shares. Most of the support I find is for win2k3 and some of it doesn't seem to apply to 2k8 r2. I've tried specifying a User Name Mapping server as well under Services for Network File Systems but even anonymous doesn't even work when I try that. Read that I need to specify that server in the .maphosts file which I also cannot locate in 2k8 r2, if it exists. Any help or direction is greatly appreciated.

*Note- this is only a test environment right now, nothing is live. Testing NFS out as a future alternative only.

What should I have, if anything more in this NFS Share Permissions area? Am I supposed to be able to add Active Directory users and groups to this? Because I cannot, which would in turn be my problem. I have added actual user machines to this list, which it lets me, but they still get denied access.

Thanks in advance. Any help or info is greatly appreciated.
