It provides functionality to +the NFSv4 kernel client and server, to which it communicates via +upcalls, by translating user and group IDs to names, and vice versa. +.Pp +The system derives the +.Em user +part of the string by performing a password or group lookup. +The lookup mechanism is configured in +.Pa /etc/idmapd.conf +.Pp +By default, the +.Em domain +part of the string is the system's DNS domain name. +It can also be specified in +.Pa /etc/idmapd.conf +if the system is multi-homed, +or if the system's DNS domain name does +not match the name of the system's Kerberos realm. +.Pp +When the domain is not specified in /etc/idmapd.conf +the local DNS server will be queried for the +.Sy _nfsv4idmapdomain +text record.
