Advanced Server HOSTMAP Not Working
If I create a file, it correctly gets my VMS username. If other people create a file, the user is always PWRK$GUEST.
I should also point out the I am a local Admin of the AdvSvr server.
Am I correct in thinking that a restart is not required if you add HOSTMAP entries?
Is there any way I can trace why the HOSTMAP isn't being picked up by the server?
Thanks, Rob.

Re: Advanced Server HOSTMAP Not Working
I wish I had more time...
If you haven't alreeady done so, please find that other thread where I talk about hostmaps and read the documentation pointed to in that thread. Hostmaps can be confusing, especially if you only read parts of the doc.
I assume the NT usernames are local, and there is no trust issues in play here?
I assume the users are actually authenticated as their NT username and they are not coming in as guest?
Are the NT user names the same as the VMS names? If not, can you create a dummy NT user and dummy VMS user to see if that behaves as desired?
There should be no need to restart just becuause of adding host maps. If you changed one of the registry settings, then you might need a restart.
There was a way to see the hostmap for a connected user. Does anyone remember if there is an ADMIN command that will sho it? Sho connections?? The tool I'm thinking of may be part of the PWRK SDA extensions - do you use them? Anyone out there use the SDA extensions and can poke around at the connection blocks or elsewhere to see if it shows you the mapping? (Sorry - it might have been some internal tool we had - I just can't remember)
There is no other way to trace the hostmapping that I know of (well, besides running a debug version of the server ;^) )

Re: Advanced Server HOSTMAP Not Working
If you have a PATHWORKS ACE on the directory or a file that's being replaced, and/or the dir is owned by the PWRK$GUEST, then the new file will inherit that.
Try setting up a test share with a few files in it (or use an actual share if you have one you can play with), remove all dir/file PATHWORKS ACE's and set the dir/files owner to the VMS username, set the hostmap, and see how things work.
Play with different settings, users and hostmaps and use ADMIN to reestablish the ACE's and see how that works differently.
