A small university department uses Unix-based workstations with local password files for security
and access. They now want to expand and use the VNX for additional storage.
Which mechanism should be used to provide authentication to NFS exports presented from the
VNX?
A.
AUTH_SYS
B.
Kerberos
C.
Authentication daemon
D.
LDAP
Why not D?
According to Virtual Data Movers on EMC VNX (https://www.emc.com/collateral/software/white-papers/h10741-vnx-data-movers-wp.pdf), it states The Data Mover hosting several VDMs is able to serve the UNIX clients that are members of different Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) or Network Information Service (NIS) domains, assuming that each VDM works in a unique domain namespace.

The unix clients in this example use local password files and are not member of an LDAP domain.
