    25282562        The idmap backend provides a plugin interface for Winbind to use
    25292563        varying backends to store SID/uid/gid mapping tables.
    25302564        </p><p>
    25312565        This option specifies the default backend that is used when no special
    2532         configuration set by <a class="link" href="smb.conf.5.html#IDMAPCONFIG" target="_top">idmap config</a> matches the
    2533         specific request.

    2535         This default backend also specifies the place where winbind-generated
    2536         idmap entries will be stored. So it is highly recommended that you
    2537         specify a writable backend like <a class="citerefentry" href="idmap_tdb.8.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">idmap_tdb</span>(8)</span></a> or <a class="citerefentry" href="idmap_ldap.8.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">idmap_ldap</span>(8)</span></a> as the idmap backend.

     2581        ID mapping in Samba is the mapping between Windows SIDs and Unix user
     2582        and group IDs. This is performed by Winbindd with a configurable plugin
     2583        interface. Samba's ID mapping is configured by options starting with the
     2584        <a class="link" href="smb.conf.5.html#IDMAPCONFIG" target="_top">idmap config</a> prefix.
     2585        An idmap option consists of the <a class="link" href="smb.conf.5.html#IDMAPCONFIG" target="_top">idmap config</a>
     2586        prefix, followed by a domain name or the asterisk character (*),
     2587        a colon, and the name of an idmap setting for the chosen domain.
     2588        </p><p>
     2589        The idmap configuration is hence divided into groups, one group
     2590        for each domain to be configured, and one group with the the
     2591        asterisk instead of a proper domain name, which speifies the
     2592        default configuration that is used to catch all domains that do
     2593        not have an explicit idmap configuration of their own.

     2623                The corresponding manual pages contain the details, but

     2626                The first three of these create mappings of their own using
     2627                internal unixid counters and store the mappings in a database.
     2628                These are suitable for use in the default idmap configuration.
     2629                The rid and hash backends use a pure algorithmic calculation
     2630                to determine the unixid for a SID. The autorid module is a
     2631                mixture of the tdb and rid backend. It creates ranges for
     2632                each domain encountered and then uses the rid algorithm for each
     2633                of these automatically configured domains individually.
     2634                The ad and adex
     2635                backends both use unix IDs stored in Active Directory via
     2636                the standard schema extensions. The nss backend reverses
     2637                the standard winbindd setup and gets the unixids via names
     2638                from nsswitch which can be useful in an ldap setup.

    25672640                Defines the available matching uid and gid range for which the
    2568                 backend is authoritative.  Note that the range commonly
    2569                 matches the allocation range due to the fact that the same
    2570                 backend will store and retrieve SID/uid/gid mapping entries.
    2571                 </p><p>
     2641                backend is authoritative. For allocating backends, this also
     2642                defines the start and the end of the range for allocating
     2643                new unid IDs.
     2644                </p><p>
    25722645                winbind uses this parameter to find the backend that is
    2573                 authoritative for a unix ID to SID mapping, so it must be set
    2574                 for each individually configured domain, and it must be
    2575                 disjoint from the ranges set via <a class="link" href="smb.conf.5.html#IDMAPUID" target="_top">idmap                 uid</a> and <a class="link" href="smb.conf.5.html#IDMAPGID" target="_top">idmap gid</a>.
     2646                authoritative for a unix ID to SID mapping, so it must be set
     2647                for each individually configured domain and for the default
     2648                configuration. The configured ranges must be mutually disjoint.

     2650                This option can be used to turn the writing backends
