13 <refpurpose>Samba's idmap_tdb Backend for Winbind</refpurpose>
17 <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
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 "idmap" and "idmap alloc" APIs.
26 <title>IDMAP OPTIONS</title>
30 <term>range = low - high</term>
32 Defines the available matching uid and gid range for which the
33 backend is authoritative. Note that the range commonly matches
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
36 is absent, Winbind fail over to use the "idmap uid" and
37 "idmap gid" options from smb.conf.
44 <title>IDMAP ALLOC OPTIONS</title>
48 <term>range = low - high</term>
50 Defines the available matching uid and gid range from which
51 winbindd can allocate for users and groups. If the parameter
52 is absent, Winbind fail over to use the "idmap uid"
53 and "idmap gid" options from smb.conf.
60 <title>EXAMPLES</title>
63 The following example is equivalent to the pre-3.0.25 default idmap
64 configuration using the "idmap backend = tdb" setting.
69 idmap domain = default
71 idmap config default:backend = tdb
72 idmap config default:range = 10000 - 50000
74 idmap alloc backend = tdb
75 idmap alloc config:range = 10000 - 50000
83 The original Samba software and related utilities
84 were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
85 by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
86 to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
