The lowest value for the range should be the smallest ID + available in the system. This is normally 1000. The highest ID should + be set to 2147483647. + + A smaller range will lead to issues because of the hashing algorithm + used. The overall range to map all SIDs is 0 - 2147483647. Any range + smaller than 0 - 2147483647 will filter some SIDs. As we can normally + only start with 1000, we are not able to map 1000 SIDs. This already + can lead to issues. The smaller the range the less SIDs can be mapped. + + We do not recommend to use this plugin. It will be removed in a future + release of Samba. + </para> +</refsynopsisdiv> + +<refsect1> + <title>IDMAP OPTIONS</title> + + <variablelist> + <varlistentry> + <term>name_map</term> + <listitem><para> + Specifies the absolute path to the name mapping + file used by the nss_info API.
