DESCRIPTION


The Resolve-NfsMappedIdentity cmdlet queries a Network File System (NFS) server to resolve the mapping of a Windows user account or group
account to a UNIX identifier.


When Resolve-NfsMappedIdentity queries the local NFS server, the local NFS server searches its cache. If the NFS server finds the mapping, the
information is returned. If the NFS server mapping does not find the mapping in the server cache, the NFS server queries the configured
mapping store. If the NFS server finds the mapping in the mapping store, the mapping is returned, locally cached, and periodically refreshed.


The main purpose of Resolve-NfsMappedIdentity is to perform mapping diagnostics. Administrators can determine whether the NFS server can
successfully get the correct mappings for users and groups by using its current configuration.


For more information about NFS, see Network File System. For more information about NFS account mapping, see NFS Account Mapping Guide and
Identity Management for UNIX.

Examples


Example 1: Resolve a Windows user account to a UNIX UID

PS C:\> Resolve-NfsMappedIdentity -AccountName "PSPinto" -AccountType "User"
Windows Account : PSPinto
Account Type : User
Identifier : 402



This command resolves the Windows user account PSPinto to UNIX user identifier 402. The output reflects the identity mapping that the local
NFS server returns.
