NFS Account Mapping Whitepaper
This paper covers Network File System (NFS) account mapping and the deployment in Windows Server 2008 R2. NFS is a network file sharing protocol that allows remote access to files over a network. NFS implementations include an NFS server component, which enables the sharing of files for use by other networked computers, and an NFS client component, which enables computers to access files shared by NFS servers. The Services for NFS role service in Windows Server provides the ability to function as an NFS server. Windows and UNIX operating systems use different account and security systems. Windows operating systems represent users and groups with a unique security identifier (SID), while UNIX operating systems represent users with user identifiers (UIDs) and group identifiers (GIDs). Account mapping is the process of correlating the UNIX UIDs and GIDs to corresponding Windows user and group SIDs.

The record number of mortgage modifications over the past few years has meant record business for companies that service those modifications—if they can keep up with demand. Loan origination processor Urban Lending Solutions expanded into the modification field, only to find that neither its technology vendor nor hosting provider could support the increased business. So, Urban Lending turned to enterprise lending solution provider Mortgage Cadence. To expand capacity cost-effectively, Mortgage Cadence looked at virtualization solutions, choosing Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V over VMware. The result is performance that is 40 to 60 percent faster than VMware; uptime of 100 percent, which is up to 15 percentage points higher than it saw with VMware; faster and easier management; and savings on the total cost of ownership that approach U.S.$1 million annually
