Security Options for Files and Folders on shared Folders written by a Mac Client

Hello !

I have connected a new MacBook Client to a Windows 2016 Domain - with Feature Essentials installed - Using your Installation Guide.

It works fine, but I have one Problem :

When I write/copy a file from the Mac to the Windows Server Shared Folder the file - information about the security rights a different.

On MAC Security Information : the User who writes the file was listet with the rights "reading/writing".

On the Windows Maschine with the Shared Folder : The User who writes the files wasn`t listed

so he cannot open the file from a different Mac Client or Windows Client. 

 

Have you any idear to solve this problem ?

I think it`s a problem with the User ID, because ...

when i attach the User on the Windows Maschine

you see the user twice (as two different User with the same name)

 

Have you any idear to syncronize the User ID ?

Must be something to do with High Sierra and Windows Server. Are logged in to the Mac as a Domain User?

Yes, I am.

And there isn`t a local account with the same name on the mac.

There is only a LAD Account (Local Administrator) on the MacBook to connect the MacBook to the AD Domain.

The User is directly connected to the Domain with creating a local copy of the profile during the first connection.

This is nessesary for using the MacBook also without connection to the Domain with this User account. 

 

Maybe you know a way how to transfer the Windows SID (Security Identifier) to the Mac (Unix) UID (User Identifiers)  - (During the first connection) ?

This might be the solution ?

 

Thanks for your help !
