19         <para>The idmap_tdb plugin is the default backend used by winbindd
20         for storing SID/uid/gid mapping tables and implements
21         both the &quot;idmap&quot; and &quot;idmap alloc&quot; APIs.

32                         Defines the available matching uid and gid range for which the

34                         the allocation range due to the fact that the same backend will
35                         store and retrieve SID/uid/gid mapping entries.  If the parameter
