Administering filesystems

NUC advanced mount options

When using the Filesystem Manager to add or modify a SCO Gateway for NetWare filesystem, select Advanced Mount Options to control the following options:

Truncate long file names

Determines whether filenames longer than 8 characters are truncated.

Group ID for creating files
Specifies whether to inherit the Group ID from the parent directory, or to use the Group ID from the calling process. For example, if the GID is inherited from the parent directory, any files created in a directory with the GID bin will also have the GID bin. If instead the GID is inherited from the calling process, the file may have a different GID, such as that of the user creating the file.

User performing the mount
Specifies the ownership of existing files on the filesystem.

Group performing the mount
Specifies the group ID of existing files on the filesystem.
