IDMAP_HASH(8)
NAME
idmap_hash - Samba's idmap_hash Backend for Winbind
DESCRIPTION
The idmap_hash plugin implements a hashing algorithm used to map SIDs
for domain users and groups to 31-bit uids and gids, respectively. This
plugin also implements the nss_info API and can be used to support a
local name mapping files if enabled via the "winbind normalize names"
and "winbind nss info" parameters in smb.conf.
IDMAP OPTIONS
- name_map
- Specifies the absolute path to the name mapping file used by the
nss_info API. Entries in the file are of the form "unix name = qualified domain name". Mapping of both user and group names is supported.
EXAMPLES
- The following example utilizes the idmap_hash plugin for the idmap and
nss_info information.
- [global]
idmap backend = hash
idmap uid = 1000-4000000000
idmap gid = 1000-4000000000 - winbind nss info = hash
winbind normalize names = yes
idmap_hash:name_map = /etc/samba/name_map.cfg

Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
