+        versions 3.0. and 3.2.
+        Currently, there should to be an explicit idmap configuration for each
+        domain that should use the idmap_rid backend, using disjoint ranges.
+        One usually needs to define a writeable default idmap range, using
+        a backent like <parameter>tdb</parameter> or <parameter>ldap</parameter>
+        that can create unix ids, in order to be able to map the BUILTIN sids
+        and other domains, and also in order to be able to create group mappings.
+        See the example below.
