# NAS User Authentication

You must configure StorNext NAS to authenticate users who will be accessing NAS shares. StorNext NAS supports Access Control Lists (ACLs) when the NAS server is bound to an AD or OpenLDAP server. If you are using an OpenLDAP server, however, you will need to enable SID mapping for full ACL support. See (Optional) Step 4: Enable SID Mapping for Full ACL Support.

Note: For a list of all the Appliance Controller commands, see the Command Index.

Authentication Methods

Do one of the following to authenticate user access to NAS shares:

- Apply AD Authentication To NAS
- Apply OpenLDAP Authentication to NAS
- Apply Apple OD Authentication to NAS
- Configure Enhanced Local NAS Authentication
- Configure Legacy Local NAS Authentication
