2 mapping scheme to map UIDs/GIDs and SIDs. No database is required

4 Defines the available matching uid and gid range for which the
5 backend is authoritative. Note that the range acts as a filter.
6 If algorithmically determined UID or GID fall outside the
7 range, they are ignored and the corresponding map is discarded.
8 It is intended as a way to avoid accidental UID/GID overlaps
9 between local and remotely defined IDs.
10 </p></dd><dt><span class="term">base_rid = INTEGER</span></dt><dd><p>
11 Defines the base integer used to build SIDs out of an UID or a GID,
12 and to rebase the UID or GID to be obtained from a SID. User RIDs
13 by default start at 1000 (512 hexadecimal), this means a good value
14 for base_rid can be 1000 as the resulting ID is calculated this way:
15 ID = RID - BASE_RID + LOW RANGE ID.

28 The original Samba software and related utilities
29 were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
30 by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
31 to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
