Access Windows file server
we are trying to access a windows file server from our file adaptor, which has been setup using a Linux CIFS mount
The mount requires a user/password to access the files on the windows server. How do we get the integration engine
to pickup the right username/password?

I've used autofs to mount CIFS/Windows shares on-demand. It works well, and the credentials are stored outside of Cache/IRIS; this way the file operation doesn't have a need to authenticate.
Intergration engine will always use rffective user and effective group defined during IRIS/Cache installation. Your windows CIFS share also mounted with same user/group and at windows side these user/group are allowed write permissions if you are trying to write at the share location.
