This module implements only the "idmap" + API, and is READONLY. Mappings must be provided in advance + by the administrator by adding the posixAccount/posixGroup + classes and relative attribute/value pairs to the user and + group objects in the AD.</para> + + <para> + Note that the idmap_ad module has changed considerably since + Samba versions 3.0 and 3.2. + Currently, the <parameter>ad</parameter> backend + does not work as the the default idmap backend, but one has + to configure it separately for each domain for which one wants + to use it, using disjoint ranges. One usually needs to configure + a writeable default idmap range, using for example the + <parameter>tdb</parameter> or <parameter>ldap</parameter> + backend, in order to be able to map the BUILTIN sids and + possibly other trusted domains. The writeable default config + is also needed in order to be able to create group mappings. + This catch-all default idmap configuration should have a range + that is disjoint from any explicitly configured domain with + idmap backend <parameter>ad</parameter>.
