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