  20         <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
  21         <para>The idmap_hash plugin implements a hashing algorithm used to map
  22           SIDs for domain users and groups to 31-bit uids and gids, respectively.
  23           This plugin also implements the nss_info API and can be used
  24           to support a local name mapping files if enabled via the
  25           &quot;winbind normalize names&quot; and &quot;winbind nss info&quot;
  26           parameters in smb.conf.
