RE: Apache Alias and QNTC directory

If you configured the Windows Services for Unix correctly, the actual unix UID should not matter in your case because we set the share to allow Everyone access on Windows.

You're still limiting the NFS share to access only from the IBMi IP address.

Probably a good idea to limit which directories on the Windows/Linux server are shared. You could even make it rread only if you're only reading files from the Windows server.

We always had issues getting Windows Services for Unix to limit access to an individual user so the config I provided should allow you interactive, batch and web jobs to access the shares.

I know what a UID is... I just don't know how it plays a role in this configuration.

UID, not user id. It's WAAAYYY down on DSPUSRPRF.
User ID number . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : 3598
Group ID number . . . . . . . . . . . . . : *NONE
