6 <para>This determines how Samba will use its
7 algorithmic mapping from uids/gid to the RIDs needed to construct
8 NT Security Identifiers.
11 <para>Setting this option to a larger value could be useful to sites
12 transitioning from WinNT and Win2k, as existing user and
13 group rids would otherwise clash with system users etc.
16 <para>All UIDs and GIDs must be able to be resolved into SIDs for
17 the correct operation of ACLs on the server. As such the algorithmic
18 mapping can't be 'turned off', but pushing it 'out of the way' should
19 resolve the issues. Users and groups can then be assigned 'low' RIDs
20 in arbitrary-rid supporting backends.
