reshare a mapped network drive, or gateway for UNC?

Hi all,

I've got a maxtor shared storage II drive, it is only network
accessible by eg : \\10.10.11.111\x

x being a folder associated with user administrator/same password as
the network admin. (ie: the maxtor NAS has no integration with active
directory, I have to manually key in user names and passwords which
must match the users in active directory, since I only know my
passwords, I cannot create a secure environment for users

(eg: \\10.10.11.111\user1 can see the contents of \
\10.10.11.111\user2 )

now, things would be fine if the maxtor device used nfs, then I could
use gateway for nfs and remap the whole thing in windows 2003 server
standard, but it uses UNC notation, I'm not sure what the protocol
is ? netbeui?

so what can I do? I can do a map network drive on the server so that
y: = \\10.10.11.111\x

but I cannot reshare out y:\user1 or y:\user2 (ie: \\10.10.11.111\x
\user1 and \\10.10.11.111\x\user2 respectively)


what can I do?

I've also tried DFS, but

eg: only mydomain\administrator has access to \\10.10.11.111\x

it is remapped using dfs as \\mydomain\users\x

I create a new user test2, under the profile in active directory, I
map z: to \\mydomain\users\x\%username%

this creates a folder in \\mydomain\users\x\test2

however, when user test2 logs in, he doesn't have access to \\mydomain
\users\x\test2

(ie: in otherwords, I need something that can act as a gateway, to
also manage users access rights via \\mydomain\administrator )
