Hello,

is it possible to move the WAPT repository storage to NFS storage?

And is it possible to run WAPT Server as an Active Directory user? I'm using Red Hat 9.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Jonathan,

I don't think it's a good idea to try and use an account other than the local WAPT Unix account that was created during server installation.

I imagine you wanted a domain account to mount an NFSv4 drive with Kerberos authentication.

You could simply mount an NFSv3 drive with just an IP address restriction (since it remains within the server zone). In that case, there's no problem moving the storage.

Regards,

Denis
