+	When a user with admin authority or SeAddUserPrivilege rights renames a user (e.g.: from the NT4 User Manager
+	for Domains), this script will be run to rename the POSIX user.  Two variables, <literal>%uold</literal> and
+	<literal>%unew</literal>, will be substituted with the old and new usernames, respectively.  The script should
+	return 0 upon successful completion, and nonzero otherwise.
+	</para>
+
+	<note><para>
+	The script has all responsibility to rename all the necessary data that is accessible in this posix method.
+	This can mean different requirements for different backends.  The tdbsam and smbpasswd backends will take care
+	of the contents of their respective files, so the script is responsible only for changing the POSIX username, and
+	other data that may required for your circumstances, such as home directory.  Please also consider whether or
+	not you need to rename the actual home directories themselves.  The ldapsam backend will not make any changes,
+	because of the potential issues with renaming the LDAP naming attribute.  In this case the script is
+	responsible for changing the attribute that samba uses (uid) for locating users, as well as any data that
+	needs to change for other applications using the same directory.
