About Omneon MediaGrid - Harmonic Inc

System Configuration
a. Open /etc/gateway.conf and delete entries for individual users beginning with “CB.”
b. Open etc/password and delete entries for the same individual users (the entries do not contain
“CB” in this file).
c. Restart gateway services by running the following command: sudo service gateway
restart
NOTE: In order to access the MediaGrid, the individual users must be added to the Active Directory domain.
About Changes to the Default Mount Point
When you configure the ContentBridge for Active Directory, the configuration assistant adds the
following line:
NATIVE
For example:
NATIVE 10.4.102.200 testfs
This mount point can be modified directly in the configuration file. However, note that the cluster
used in the NATIVE line must be configured to authenticate against the same Active Directory
domain as the ContentBridge. For instructions on editing the configuration file, refer to “Editing the
High Bandwidth ContentBridge Configuration File” in the Omneon SystemManager User Guide.
Verifying Communication with the Domain Controller
To verify communication:
1. Use wbinfo to do an domain user lookup using the following command. This example shows a
ContentBridge 2010B/2010C with hostname hbcb205 for test user lqa1:
[root@hbcb205 ~]# service winbind start
[root@hbcb205 ~]# wbinfo -n lqa1
[root@hbcb205 ~]# service winbind stop
The expected result is:
S-1-5-21-3782130030-2455357663-1162092550-2004 User (1)
NOTE: Make sure that winbind service is stopped after testing connectivity with the domain server. If you do
not stop the winbind service on the ContentBridge 2010B/2010C, it will interfere with authentication when you
attempt to access the MediaGrid using CIFS.
2. If the ContentBridge 2010B/2010C configuration file contains a valid NATIVE line and the
MediaGrid is mounted on the ContentBridge 2010B/2010C, use smbclient on the ContentBridge
2010B/2010C to connect to the local CIFS share.
The syntax for the smbclient command is
smbclient -U -W \\\\localhost\\
For example, for a ContentBridge 2010B/2010C with hostname hbcb205:
[root@hbcb205 ~]# smbclient -U lqa2 -W SNV-ENG \\\\localhost\\testfs
