If enabled, simple maps create automatic mappings 
between Unix users and Microsoft Windows users that 
both share the same user name. In a simple user map, 
users in a Windows domain are implicitly mapped 
one-to-one to UNIX users on the basis of user name. 
When the Windows domain and the UNIX 'passwd' and 
group files or Network Information Services (NIS) 
domain are identified, the simple maps function maps 
users who have the same name in both the Windows 
and UNIX or NIS domain. If no match exists for a user 
name in either place, that user is not mapped.
Note:
To access this page you must have entered a 
valid NIS server name on the
