Mixed security mode

The server’s mixed security mode supports both Windows and UNIX security definitions. Security is set up uniquely on each file (or directory), based on which user created, or last took ownership of, the file (or directory). If a Windows user, the security definition will be native CIFS and subject to Windows security rules; likewise, if a UNIX user, the security definition will be native NFS and subject to UNIX security rules.
