+ <para>This option is used to control whether or not smbd in Samba 3.0 should fallback
+ to the algorithm used by Samba 2.2 to generate user and group RIDs. The longterm
+ development goal is to remove the algorithmic mappings of RIDs altogether, but
+ this has proved to be difficult. This parameter is mainly provided so that
+ developers can turn the algorithm on and off and see what breaks. This parameter
+ should not be disabled by non-developers because certain features in Samba will fail
+ to work without it.
